Heres a shopping cart graveyard behind the Dudley, MA Ames.  Two of the carts are from local grocery chains from the 60's.  Including some old Ames GOB signs in the background.

Sad. That one looks like an Eckerd cart. Eckerd carts are so small.

**Edit:  It is no longer our last shopping cart.  We acquired about 3 from the Rocky Hill Ames parking lot, and one more roaming the parking lot in Dudley.

So did you reclaim the signs and cart (add them to your collection), or leave them there?
