Woolworth in Cyprus?
When we were in Limassol, Cyprus, in 1995, Nancy and I visited a Woolworth department store there. This was no dime store. It was more like The Bay here in Canada or a Marshall Fields in the US. Whether this ever had any connection to the F. W. Woolworth chain I have no idea. According to the company's website, the first store was opened in 1974, the very year of the troubles leading to the island's partition.
