Bring a piece of regional retail history to your desk with this SUN Super Saving Centers mouse pad. Founded in 1949 by Macy and Herbie Block, Sun Television and Appliances sold electronics, appliances, and office equipment in cities and rural communities across several states. The company's proposed 1996 acquisition, 1998 bankruptcy filing, and eventual liquidation made its name part of a changing era in American retail. A fitting desk accent for former shoppers and collectors of store history.
Sun Television and Appliances was a specialty retailer of consumer electronics, home appliances, and office equipment. Founded in 1949 by brothers Macy and Herbie Block, it operated stores in cities across the Midwest as well as in rural communities where there was no other competition. Its reported operating area included Ohio, Indiana, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, and Kentucky. In late 1996, Indiana-based H.H. Gregg Appliances and Electronics arranged to buy Sun in an $87.5 million deal, offering $5 per share for Sun's 17.5 million outstanding shares. H.H. Gregg withdrew over concerns about Sun's financial condition. Sun filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September 1998. After efforts to sell the company as a going concern failed, it converted to Chapter 7 liquidation and ceased operations by the end of 1998. H.H. Gregg purchased some former Sun locations and reopened them under its own name, marking a transition for those stores from the regional retailer to a successor operator.
