Your Bank Americard welcome here.

This is an iconic store downtown, straight out of 1953. I'm sure every tourist and plenty of locals have a picture of it. This time when I was walking by, the BankAmericard sign caught my eye. I can see someone accidentally time traveling here from 1968 and feeling relieved to see the sign. "My BankAmerica card is welcome here? What a relief!" I'm not sure a card of the same vintage as the sign would be accepted, but, you never know. I mean, did they have the magnetic strip then? I think not. And would our time-traveler benefit from the purchase of Western Wear? I'll leave it to you to decide.
