    Winchester Hardware

    Owner Craig Martin is closing the business his grandfather bought 40 years ago


    Craig Martin, the owner of Winchester Hardware, digs in his desk drawer for a picture. "Here it is," he says triumphantly. He turns the photograph over to check the date, circa 1961. It's a simple black-and-white postcard that has yellowed slightly with age. It's a picture of Winchester Hardware's storefront looking no different now then when Martin's grandfather, Charlie DeLaRoce, a Canadian who moved to California, bought it 40 years earlier. Back then the street was still called Winchester Road. The parking lots were dirt and there wasn't much else in Campbell.   More
