Woolworth "Five and Dime" variety stores were a common sight all over the United States. Seattle's first Woolworth store was on Second Avenue; another opened later on Pine Street.

In this photo, Woolworth's windows are filled with boxes of soap powder, bolts of fabric, stacks of notebooks, rows of socks, and countless other things to lure customers inside.
