The woman checked the Threeriver Mall Maternity Store and after a few moments had my answer.
"Ma'am, the maternity wear that you purchased was shipped from a warehouse in Ireland. Does that help in any way?" The woman on the phone said.
"Is there anymore information that you can give me?" I questioned her.
After a moment she asked if this would help and started listing off facts. "Shipped from a company warehouse located in Ireland. Popular trend in the early seventies, died out for a bit and became popular again in the mid-eighties. Retired until about about three weeks ago. Ma'am, you should consider yourself lucky that it wasn't sold out and we had just put it out on the rack when you bought it. Sort of like a first customer deal, huh."
Thanking her, I tried to remember if there was a woman in the store that looked like me that day. Remembering that the store was pretty much empty and that there had been no red haired woman, I then asked if there was a phone number of internet sight for the warehouse.
I could hear the keys clacking the background and after another few minutes, she was back and explaining, "The warehouse in Ireland went under, but there is a general website you could try."
Writing down the website, I thanked her for her time and hung up. "A some what dead end, but maybe I might find something useful out on the web." I reasoned out as I went over to my computer and started the boot up process.
