22 NEW LOCATIONS • 304 STORES STRONG
This original Target Grand Opening Sale circular, dated October 11–17, 1987, celebrates 22 new locations in Michigan, California and Iowa. The cover announces Target as “304 stores strong across America” and prints a remarkable list of California openings.
The named California markets include Sacramento, Rancho Cordova, Woodland, Fresno, Modesto, Escondido, Stockton, Visalia, Bakersfield, Chico and Yuba City. Inside, the expansion story shares space with Nintendo Entertainment System imagery, Transformers, electronics, bicycles, fashion and home merchandise—a powerful combination of local history and pop-culture nostalgia.
An intact dated circular preserves more than a single advertisement: it keeps the brands, prices, graphics and neighboring merchandise together in their original retail setting. This listing is for the physical vintage paper circular only; no pictured merchandise is included.
Used vintage condition with age toning, edge and corner wear, fold lines, mild waviness/curling and scattered handling creases. Outer edges show normal newspaper-insert irregularities; the cover text, addresses and photographed interiors remain readable. Not mint. Please review every photo for the exact pages, folds, edges and overall condition.
