{"product_id":"2940011838552","title":"The Street That Wasn't There","description":"The Street That Wasn't There appeared in the July 1941 issue of Comet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMr. Jonathon Chambers left his house on Maple Street at exactly seven o'clock in the evening and set out on the daily walk he had taken, at the same time, come rain or snow, for twenty solid years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe walk never varied. He paced two blocks down Maple Street, stopped at the Red Star confectionery to buy a Rose Trofero perfecto, then walked to the end of the fourth block on Maple. There he turned right on Lexington, followed Lexington to Oak, down Oak and so by way of Lincoln back to Maple again and to his home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe didn't walk fast. He took his time. He always returned to his front door at exactly 7:45. No one ever stopped to talk with him. Even the man at the Red Star confectionery, where he bought his cigar, remained silent while the purchase was being made. Mr. Chambers merely tapped on the glass top of the counter with a coin, the man reached in and brought forth the box, and Mr. Chambers took his cigar. That was all.","brand":"Spastic Cat Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47145229975792,"sku":"2940011838552","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940011838552_p0.jpg?v=1763550040","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940011838552","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
