I can't offer any more IDs on the photos, but Thank You for the site link! I was just thinking about K-Mart last night when I noticed another one gone. Not a big loss, I guess, but it's part of history. Most of the ones here in SoCal closed during the first bankruptcy in the late 90s, and a few more lately have turned into something called Sears-Grand. Never been in one. Sears bought K-Mart, if I recall, about 10 years ago.
