Macy Sky vs. Macy*s Store

Someone e-mailed me out of the blue recently asking a weird question that took a little intensive "research" on the web to finally understand. He wrote: "Where's your Macy Sky stuff? Got any? I surfed over to your site but I don't see her anywhere, just a bunch of old shopping malls! What's going on dude?"

Let me just take a second to to clear something up. :)

A note to anyone else out there searching for "Macy Sky" stuff: sorry, but the only "Macy" related grooviness you might find here is about Macy*s--the department store chain. This is a blog devoted to vintage shopping malls and the stores therein.

Macy Sky, the (ahem) "glamour model", while a beautiful and talented young lass, to be sure, simply doesn't quite fit in with the theme and focus of this site.

And I really should do something about that.

Macy's at Hillsdale Shopping Center

San Mateo, California - circa 1950s

Hillsdale Shopping Center, in the "heart of the peninsula", in San Mateo, California. This keen vintage postcard image is a keeper I'd say! The Macy's store entrance, as well as the shopping center's beautiful sign, are both visible nicely here in one handy, very pretty, shot--that I'd love to step right the heck into.

If you're new here, don't forget to check out my "Shopping Can Be Fun" Hillsdale video, too!
