Photograph of a 1980s-vintage Spencer Gifts storefront - the last of its kind. In the left window is an ad for Christmas sweaters. In the right, the announcement the store is "moving" to Southridge Mall (where a store has long existed).

The last 80s-vintage Spencer Gifts location will close in early 2025. Some later variants of this design remain, but their numbers are also down to a handful.
