When my shop was running, I saw a few Bradfords.

Back story: When Grants closed, I was at the store here in Asheville one day, and they had a pet department... fish, etc. I wanted to buy some tropical fish for my aquarium, and the lady handed me the net and told me to get what I wanted, as they were closing. She told me she had worked for Grants for nearly 30 years, and was crying.

Before it was over and done, I wound up with all of the tropical fish the store had, and got fire-sale prices on several big aquariums and stands that were going to be trashed. I've got decendants of the guppies and zebra fish that I got in 1973 today.

I've been sitting here trying to remember who built the Bradford sets I worked on, and am drawing a big blank.

The Grant store here had a fairly large entertainment center department with lots of TV's and console stereos, etc. I liked going there.
