Martin and Anna Pluth of Roundup, Montana, operated the Fifth Avenue
Grocery store. When Anna died in 1952, the family just boarded up the
store; didn't sell off the contents or anything. The last of the family
died recently, and today (4-30) the entire contents of the store are
going up for auction. Contents include everything from mint condition
period food packages to a Coke display still in its carton and an
American Flyer windup train set.

Sad in a way. It would have been an impressive museum.
