Description: Donna Hubbell opened the Slot Shop in Elyria, Ohio in 1964 with her husband, Paul, as a hobby shop specializing in slot car racing. The original store was located on Winkles Street, but before too long they moved to their longtime location on Cleveland Street, which featured an eight-lane, 100-foot long slot car racing track where customers could buy time to run their cars and many events were held. While primarily dedicated to slots, The Slot Shop also stocked a wide array of craft and hobby supplies that attracted locals and out-of-towners alike. The family-run business was sold in 2001 and closed just five years later in 2006 after an amazing 42-year run.
