{"product_id":"kings-department-stores-infant-bodysuit","title":"King's Department Stores Infant Bodysuit","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduce a new generation to a memorable name in American retail with this King's Department Stores Infant Bodysuit. King's began in Brockton, Massachusetts, in 1956 and grew into a 187-store discount chain across the Eastern United States. Its history spans acquisitions, financial challenges, a 1982 bankruptcy filing, and the 1984 purchase by Ames, after which most King's stores became Ames locations. A thoughtful choice for families with an interest in regional history and for collectors who enjoy sharing stories about the department stores that shaped local communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKing's Department Stores was an Eastern United States discount-store chain that began in Brockton, Massachusetts, in 1956. The business expanded to 187 stores, including three in the Buffalo, New York, area. Its growth included acquisitions of other retail chains: Miracle Mart in 1968, Sandy's Discount Stores in 1966, Welles in 1973, and Barker's Discount Department Stores in 1980. The supplied article gives two dates for its purchase of Mammoth Mart: its narrative says 1978, while its acquisition list says 1977. In 1978, King's also proposed a merger with W.R. Grace, which was projected to add $325 million in sales revenue to Grace. The merger was called off in June that year. Economic downturn and debt associated with the Mammoth purchase preceded King's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in 1982. In 1984, Ames Department Stores purchased the chain and converted most King's locations into Ames stores. Ames later went out of business in 2002. King's history connects regional discount retail growth, acquisitions, financial strain, bankruptcy, and the conversion of stores under a successor company.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding:
