    Clothing chain Anchor Blue appears to be going out of business. One of their stores at the mall near our house had its final hours while we were there Saturday. We walked away with 8 male torso mannequins and 12 4' wooden display shelves with brackets... for under $100! They had bunches of full-bodied mannequins and heavy-duty rolling display shelf units already labeled as "sold". Sunday, we went to another location, but they were so picked over, all we got was a left arm. That store's final day will be tomorrow.

    So, check to see if you have any Anchor Blue stores in your area.

    Many years ago I bought a dozen like brand new ones for $20 each!. THEN the problem was how do I get them home 25 miles away? I only had a 79 thunderbird. Two trips did it. I took them all down to pieces/parts packed them in, I took pictures because it looked So Strange!
    Quite the accident? A serial-killer going to the river?

    When I got there, there was only one or two full body mannequins left, but lots of half mannequins. The full body ones were about 65 dollars each. Sadly, they went home with someone else.
