Found this pic on flickr taken in 2006 of the mall entrance of a former Hills/Ames store near Pottsville, PA. It looks to be a dead mall so I doubt anything is in the space today

That sign looks to be a clue that it was a former Hills.

It was an old Hills store.  That store was the store with the most sales for both Hills & Ames. The store was divide into 3 part, one part is now an Ollie store, the other part is now a Doctor office,and the 3rd part where the photo was taken is still empty. I have photos of the front of the store on my website http://mysite.verizon.net/vzer9h0t/amesdc969leesportpa22/ there look for link to photos .

Also, nice find MBZ!

BTW, you can actually tell which locations were Hills based on their store #'s.  We have the key at the bottom of our store locator, and here it is below;

Most of the former Zayre Ames's are in the 2000's.
Former Rich's stores are in the 700's.
Former Hill's are in the 1000's (1 + Original Hills Store #).
If it was between 500 & 600 it was a Murphy Mart. Former Jamesways were between 702 & 718.
