The Wandering Disciple

Like a photo from the past, canned goods line the shelves of the Oldest Store Museum. Frozen in time, the museum is a throwback to when the corner store was your one-stop shop for everything you needed from canned goods, fresh meats, the latest and greatest electronics, firearms and much more. Modeled after the 1908 CF Hamblen General Store, the museum brings to life the pages of a 20th century Sears and Roebuck catalog. (Photo: March 17, 2020)

Come on in, do I have a deal for you. A new product that is guaranteed to fix any ailment you have and even ones you didn’t even know you had yet. Don’t you want to live your life ailment free, good so do I. How many can I get you? The fast sale pitch of the general store comes to life at the Oldest Store Museum where you turn back the clock to experience a shopping experience unlike today’s mega stores. And it gets even better when you reach the warehouse and see what goods are coming up in the early 1900’s market. (Photo: March 17, 2020)
