From 1963, a newspaper ad for the Racine, Wis., Neisner Bros. variety store (5c to $1.00). On sale, if you bought any ten Fleer penny gum products (Chum Gum included), the eleventh was free. Neisner was a New York based chain of variety stores, and the Racine store was downtown at 424 Main St. In business from 1930 to 1971. I remember the lunch counter inside, plus an arcade style shooting game in back (ten shots for a dime). Declining profits, and the threat of steeper property taxes, prompted Neisner to close in December, 1971. A furniture store replaced it in 1972.
