Elkton’s Cut Rate Stores Trace Bear to Bourne and McGinnis Era
A March 1953 photo shows Bourne's Cut Rate Store at 315 E Spotswood Trail in Elkton. The business began as Bear's Cut Rate Store in the 1920s, later passing to Lineweaver, then Russ Bourne, Merlin Myers, and finally Thomas D. McGinnis who renamed it McGinnis Cut Rate Store. The shop offered a soda fountain, Coca Cola, coffee, ice cream, film development, Kodak film, flowers, toys, and more with a nickel pricing for fountain items. The store operated into the late 1960s before closing. Readers with additional information may contact Casey Billhimer.
