Another Frederick business will be shutting their doors soon. As noted in the comments and from this photo emailed to me by Joe W., Mondo Gonzo, formerly CineGraphics, is going out of business:

That’s too bad. True, I’ve never knew that store was there, but I’m sure it was cool store.
Jason! We went in that store a few times.
Ah, I’m gonna miss them. They were the *best* source of Christmas-time gag gifts for the office. Not to mention the chuckles I got every time I set foot in the store.
I somehow had it in my head that kids weren’t allowed in at ALL and hadn’t managed to be in the neighborhood when I didn’t have my kids with me. I’d have had to go in myself to see what they’d be asking questions about anyway…
But bummer. I liked the store and I liked those guys. More John Waters is always a good thing.
Not a good store. Not surprised it is closing.
I loved that store- Erik is a great guy. I wish him well in the future.
I also loved this store and thought it brought an important sense of fun to Frederick. Very sad that it will be gone
Sad Times…
I don’t know what his reasons were for movong, but I always thought it was a bad idea. Such a shame.
I went into the store a few times before he moved. A couple of the times I had my teen age nephew with me. He thought most of the stuff there was totally tasteless and funny but he liked it. That end of town is hard for business. Wonder who will move in there next.
according to the website it is trouble with the historic preservation committee & the north end of town not being supported by downtown partnership. i don’t have any facts beyond that to verify one way or the other, but i still hate to see a local biz to go under. another sign of the times….
Anyone know the address for his store? i have a photo i’ve been wanting to give hm for awhile. Took it back when he was at his first location. His vintage car is parked in front. Might be a cool memory…..in time anyway. Thanks.
My fridge is covered with magnets I bought there. Knowing Eric it’s probably some sort of protest. Just wait and see…
That is too bad. I also bought goofy stuff at the store. Always hard to see a unique Frederick business close their doors.
