The Basket Stores was a huge chain of grocery stores with numerous stores in Omaha, Lincoln, and St. Joseph, but with smaller stores scattered around the area. Saronville had a Basket Store for a time.
This is an ad for the one in Sutton. At the time, there were 73 of these, according to the text on the basket. What do you bet they had baskets just like the one in the ad for use in the stores. Wonder if one of those might be gathering dust in someone's attic or basement.
