1969 top 5
1. Sears
2. Montgomery Ward -gone
3. JC Penny
4. SS Kreske(K mart)
5. Woolworth( gone) , my mistake working for them for 9 years.
Looked it up, Sears is 23rd, at least at the time of the article
JC Penny, 3rd in 1969 is now 37th, OMG
I don't think they threw food in the list in 1969, but they do carry a lot of general merchandise these days.
