That logo description doesn’t ring a bell, it was was like this key logo. This is close to what ours looked like. I think their stores were only in the Midwest. I liked going there as a kid, but it didn’t last a year once the Walmart opened up. The Walmart closed a number of small shops in town.

I was going to list Ken Griffey Jr - the greatest swing ever. But that's sort of cheating because he was only born here because his dad played for the Reds. Although he was raised here rhrough high school so I guess it counts.

I could have listed Barry Larkin as well. Arguably the best shortstop of all time. HEATH VON DOOM @HEATH VON DOOM
Thats a losing argument. He wasnt even the best SS of his time
