Buckeye Mart Fostoria Plaza N Countyline St Fostoria Wood Co OH

Buckeye Mart general store and Foodtown Grocery Store; 546 Plaza Drive; Fostoria, Ohio. The "place" in town to go for all your shopping needs. Bought plenty of record albums there and plastic models and Testors Glue in the orange tube...

Foodtown next door. Mom didn't shop here for some reason, but it was always a treat to go to Buckeye Mart! The sign had five colored balls that went to various heights. Red, yellow, green, blue, and orange(?). At night, we could see these illuminated orbs from where we lived in Stearns Crest, three miles north of Fostoria.
