Stripling and Cox on Camp Bowie
Front view of the Stripling and Cox store at 6370 Camp Bowie.
This store was originally R.E. Cox and Co., better known as Cox's.
In the early 1980s, Cox's and a rival department store known as Stripling's
were both doing poorly and I believe were nearly out of business.
They decided to join forces and became Stripling and Cox, which gave them
at least another 25 years of life.

The Standard station on the corner has been there a long time also.
In the early 1980s it was a Gulf station.
