KELLY'S SPORTING GOODS, Garden City, Cranston, RI Long before there was the Sports Authority, Modells & Dick's, there was only one choice for sporting goods and that was Kelly's! if you have any old pics - please send them to me!
Great place to hang out in the Summer cause the AC was nice and cold! My next door neighbor, Toy worked there and I always liked talking with her while I waited for my iron-on T shirt! Mike S.
Remember their jingle? "Kelly's got the goods in sports!"
ReplyDeleteI don't remember when it was but I went with my dad to get my first baseball glove here. I want to thank Linda for putting the jingle in my head, lol.

ReplyDeleteSo many kids had jobs at Kelly's
ReplyDeleteYeah they did. They must have employed hundreds (maybe thousands) of young kids over the years. They were there forever.
