Essex Card Shop, home to one of the neighborhood's greatest business signs — film developing! art supplies! luggage! — is on the move... they are in the process of relocating here on Avenue A between Second Street and Third Street ...
... one block to the north, where the short-lived and currently closed Essex 99-Cent Store (same owners!) was for about nine months...
And here's another look at the Essex Card Shop sign from the personal collection of EVG...

Ditto!
Ditto! Look at that, the phone number doesn't even have an area code on it.
Signage!!!!
Does anyone know how long they have been in business? I wonder if this store has Essex in its name because it might have started on Essex Street? It's one of the few businesses that has been in the EV as long as I have.
The sign needs to stay there, or go with them. Please!
The current owners—super nice folks!—bought the business from previous owner...10-15 yrs ago?
This is one of my favorite stores in the neighborhood! Yes please keep the old signage.
