The May's drug stores were in No. Illinois, So. Wisconsin and No. Iowa and were aquired with Eagle in 1968. As of 1979 there were 19 stores in the mid-west. Several marginal stores were closed prior to 1979. There was also one store in the Los Angeles area, which was a May's/L&G sporting goods unit.

Where in LA was that one Mays-LG unit and what sits there today?
