One of the most successful departments of Woolworth’s and other 5 and 10 cent stores was the pet department, which mostly offered parakeets, turtles, gold fish, and supplies and accessories. Here is a typical product sold in dime store pet departments - ceramic fish bowl decorations. These have an Oriental motif and were made in Japan in the 1930s through the 1950s—the perfect finishing touch for the well-appointed fish bowl! There are 6 different styles priced at $21 for all 6.
