M.E. Moses 5&10
Paducah, TX
Walton's 5&10
Bentonville, AR
McLellan's
Bessemer, AL
The M.E. Moses 5&10 was a Texas chain which had folded by the 1990s. This may have been the first location. This is apparently the only sign left although the store itself is long closed. [map]

Sam Walton opened this Walton's 5&10 in 1950 in the former Luther Harrison's Variety Store. In 1951, the store expanded into the building next door. The company would develop into the present-day Wal-Mart chain. In 1962, the first Wal-Mart opened in Rogers, AR. This building now houses the Walmart Visitor Center & Museum. [map]

The McLellan's five-and-dime building was built in 1942. It was next door to a Woolworth store and three doors away from a Kress store. McLellan's was open at least through the 1960s. The building was restored in 2004. The building now houses the Up & Up event space and the Paisley Pig antique store. [map]

Savannah, GA
Guerneville 5&10
Guerneville, CA
The Weed Building was built in 1900. It housed Silver's 5&10 since at least the 1920s, if not from the beginning. There was once a huge rooftop, scaffold sign with the store's name and wrap around signs on the facade at the street level. For more, see this website. [map]

The Guerneville 5&10 opened in 1949 and is still operating. [map]

Harold's may have been the original occupant of this Art Deco building. There were tiles near the entrance that still spelled out the name.
