Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Carry memories of a much-loved retail name wherever your travels take you. Toys R Us began in Washington, D.C., in 1948 as Children's Supermart and became a toy-focused business in 1957, when its first Toys R Us store opened in Rockville, Maryland. The company later expanded beyond the United States, and its changing story includes closure and renewed retail activity. This passport cover celebrates the brand's enduring place in popular culture and makes a thoughtful travel keepsake for collectors and longtime fans.
Founded in April 1948 by Charles P. Lazarus in Washington, D.C., the business began as Children's Supermart, a baby-furniture retailer. In June 1957, Lazarus refocused it on toys and opened the first Toys R Us in Rockville, Maryland. Acquired by Interstate Department Stores in 1966, the chain grew across the United States and expanded into Canada and Britain in the mid-1980s. A 2005 leveraged buyout by Bain Capital, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts, and Vornado Realty Trust made it privately owned. The company filed for bankruptcy protection in the United States and Canada in September 2017; its remaining U.S. stores closed in June 2018. In January 2019, global intellectual property excluding Canada transferred to Tru Kids, which relaunched retail activity. WHP Global acquired a controlling interest in Tru Kids in 2021 and arranged a Macy's store-within-a-store rollout beginning in 2022. Standalone and flagship stores also returned, including locations at American Dream in New Jersey and Mall of America in Minnesota. The brand's history also includes related businesses such as Babies R Us and Kids R Us.
