Hi,
I have an issue of El Tucsonense (a spanish language newspaper) from March 9, 1951. It has an ad for Martin Drug Co. which was part of the Rexall chain. It says they had stores at Speedway & Country Club and Congress & Church (these locations had photographic service. Their store at Congress & 5th Ave. had all night service.

There was a Rexall on the southeast corner of Oracle and Grant where
the Circle K is now.
Also Nick DeGrazia was pretty well known at the old "Boondocks" when
it was located on the northwest corner of Prince and Campbell. Lee
Marvin was no stranger there, too. Another of his hangouts was "The
Rusty Nail" over on Flowing Wells just north of Wetmore.
