Nov 27, 1965 - Gordie Howe scores his 600th goal

On February 22, 1878, the first Woolworth's was founded in Utica, NY by Frank Winfield Woolworth, with a loan of $300. Though it initially appeared to be successful, the store soon failed. Searching for a new location, a friend suggested Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Using the sign from the Utica store, Frank opened his first successful "Woolworth's Great Five Cent Store" on June 21, 1879, in Lancaster. Frank brought his brother, Charles Sumner Woolworth, into the business. The brothers pioneered and developed merchandising, direct purchasing, sales, and customer service practices that are commonly used today. Here are clerks outside the second store in June 1879.
