Look Back: Pictures from the Old Flotkens Supermarket

The building that will soon house Shane Co. was a grocery story until 1985. See some historical pictures from those days. Richard Simmons was among the celebrities to pass through the doors.

We asked Mike Flotken for permission to run some of his historic photos of Flotkens supermarket when it was housed in the Olivette store at 9643 Olive Boulevard — the store that is being renovated for a Shane Co. jewelry store that is moving from Brentwood.
