Topps was the name of the store next to the Farmer Jacks on Telegraph. I can still remember walking up to the store on Joy and Warwick with my dad to pick up the Impala Station Wagon back in the 70's. I used to think that Matick had a huge operation there because they had several lots in the area along Joy, and a collision shop next to the Cake Store/Piedmont Appliance.

Topps was much like a K-mart. They had another store at Joy and Greenfield and I guess several more in the metro, though I was a little Planner when they went out of business I only knew Joy Rd, Plymouth, Chicago, Grand River/Greenfield, Grand River/Oakman and Downtown back then.
