English's Choice Antiques Postcard, c1980

English's Choice Antiques Postcard, c1980
"English's Choice Antiques. Rt. 1, Box 299, Hiway 99E, Hubbard, Oregon, 97032, Phone 981-9821. Estates bought and sold. Furniture, old glass, china, lamps, brass, etc. OLD TREASURES YOU'D LIKE TO LIVE WITH. Closed Monday & Tuesday.

Techniphoto. Henry McGrew Printing, K.C. Mo., 61038, Action Color Adv., 2502 SE Belmont, Portland, Ore., 234-3689.


I did some research, but couldn't find any history of this shop or the folks who ran it, alas. So the date range is just a guess. There's no phone area code listed, and Oregon got its first one in 1947. But this card looks much more recent than that.

Anyway, off to the more important stage: turning it into a pixel-art game where a cat raids the shop and you have to distract them before they can break everything. :D

Slightly enlarged to show detail.

It was half-completed but then my main backer pulled out. Something about a stolen bitcoin wallet. Whatever THAT is. :P
