Mays Department Stores

Here are some commercials from the old Mays department store. The one by where we grew up in Levittown closed in the mid-80s and is now the home of the Tri-County Flea Market, which opened up shortly after Mays went under. If you go to Tri-County, you can still see remnants of the old Mays, including door handles with the store's name on them and the old elevators and escalators from the Mays era. These commercials span from the late 70s on through to 1983, a couple of years before the whole chain went out of business. Pictured above is a shot of the old Mays store in Union Square, which later became the now-sadly closed Virgin Megastore.
