Shaw &Tenney is at the bottom of Mill St. in Orono, ME. Further up Mill St.
was, in the sixties, a tavern, called the Shamrock Grill. There, one could
get a 7 oz. PBR or Schlitz for $.15, a pckled egg for $.25 or a plate of
steamers for $1.00 (Fridays only). Life was good.

excelent price. I have a set for the dinghy and a set over the mantle.

I'm wondering what online 'shops' folks use? I previously lived pretty
close to a couple of good chandleries so never needed to mail order.
