KELLY'S SPORTING GOODS

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!

    1. Yeah they did. They must have employed hundreds (maybe thousands) of young kids over the years. They were there forever.

  9. 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!
