Being a hardware store in a semi-rural area, this store offers not just hardware but also needs on the farm and ranch.
The horse replica gets redecorated regularly depending upon the upcoming holiday or season. The Stars and Stripes theme was in view of the upcoming Independence Day (July 4) holiday when the photo was taken.
Behind the horse appears to be a towable calf-roping practice dummy for participants to get better for rodeo events.
Walk in and take a deep breath... the unmistakable smell of an old fashioned hardware store. Thank God some of these still exist.

I cheated on the H, but the others items are as I found them.
Woods Hardware Store, at 125 E. Ninth Street, has just opened. This family-owned, full-service hardware store has expanded to 8,000 square feet offering tools, paint, home goods, pet supplies and even a garden center.
a trip to the hardware store for a shower plug-- found the aisle with drawers of screws and nuts and bolts!!!
I was only there a couple hours
Here's yet another of the wall signs, this time for the hardware department. For some reason, the top shelf here was being used to store laundry baskets when I was there, which most likely do not belong in this part of the store. Also, this store is quite large -- why do they need to have so much backstock out on the salesfloor here anyways? I get it with smaller stores that don't have too much backroom space, but it doesn't really make sense here...

Faram Bros Hardware in Port Melbourne is closing down. The end of an era. Hopefully it doesn't get replaced with a neo-georgian nightmare.

At first glance, the appeal of Meyers Ace Hardware on 35th Street in Bronzeville is that it has the personality and charm of a true, old school neighborhood hardware store. But if you step inside, you learn that its rich history makes it so much more...it once hosted performances by such legends as Ella Fitzgerald, Count Basie, and Louie Armstrong. The venue opened in the 1920s as the Sunset Cafe. It was a "black and tan" nightclub, one of the city's few integrated clubs where a black person would be treated as a white person's equal. It later continued on as Grand Terrace nightclub, and thrived for more years before eventually closing. In 1960 the father of the current owner, Dave Meyers, moved his hardware store into the space and uncovered evidence of its incredible jazz legacy. Some of that evidence still remains; most notably, the store's back office retains the hand-painted murals that originally adorned the wall behind the stage. Manager Dave Meyers is very proud of his store's fabulous past, and some very cool old photos and promo pieces are prominently on display.

This store still has a rather impressive hardware section, especially considering there's a Home Depot across the parking lot! I was quite impressed to see a whole bulk screw/nail/bolt/etc section here, though I wouldn't be surprised if Kroger kills it off in the remodel.
This section has the second of three main sign types, the most bland of the three (though the tone-on-tone Fred Meyer logo in the corner is interesting). This style is similar to the primary style used in the next decor package we're going to see.
