This is one of the two Market Baskets in Plaistow NH. IT is in the stateline plaza. The plaza was built in 1967, but the Market Basket is store number #37 so a supermarket or store must have been there before Market Basket. THE STOR IS VERY SMALL!

[d_fife]

This is the market basket in Leominster MAss. It is store number 16 and said to be 50,000 square feet. The store's original location ,from what outdated artcles said was in the SEarstown MAll next to Filene's where Toys r us is and Kimco says the old store was 31,535 square feet. The worcester article said the store moved to its currently location in June 1991.

[d_fife]

This is the 2nd MArket Basket in Fitchburg. IT is store number 33 and maybe opened in like the very early 1980s and is said to be 40,000 square feet. This one is in the John Fitch Plaza on John Fitch Blvd.

This is the sign of the market Basket in Lowell in the Sunrise Shopping Center.

The building is white and in the last right of the building is light brown. The lettering is darkish red and somewhat small.



REcently I went by the one in Londonderry and the lettering was originally very small and market lettering was on top of basket lettering and they made the lettering (saying Market BAsket) big and next to each other.
