Better yet go down & see the wildlife & the picturesque Hager Pond that sits right behind the store. 3)The Building The structure was built in 1790 in Sudbury Center. Imagine this place was built just a few years after our country first began in 1776. It was formerly a General Store, School & Post Office. It was purchased & moved to this location by Henry Ford. Yes that Henry Ford of the Ford Motor Company. The foundation of the building was made from huge boulders dug up from the grounds, & the basement is supported by pillars made out of huge tree trunks. There is a secret located in the cellar. The stairs are hand carved from logs & the steps are joined together with wooden pegs. Mr. Ford had a way to detect burglars that predated burger alarms. What Henry did was to loosen the pegs in every third stair so they creaked. When someone stepped on them that would signal that a burglar was climbing the stairs.

I have been a loyal customer of 'The Paper Store' for a while now. I have always had great…read moreexperiences with their customer service and have never been disappointed with the business. However, today at a particular location, I had an unpleasant experience. Out of all the 'Paper Store' locations I have visited, I have never been profiled as someone who might steal. I had only come to this store to look at Pura Vida and JellyCats. Despite this, one of the associates told me that I had to leave my Pura Vida jewelry at the front counter. As I walked over to the JellyCats section, another associate approached me as if I was going to steal the jewelry. This made me feel disrespected and uncomfortable. When I entered the store and went to the jewelry section, I felt like all eyes were on me as if I was going to do something illegal. So, if you plan to look at jewelry in this location, be prepared for them to assume you're going to steal it. Just to clarify, I have been to multiple "Paper Store" locations and I've NEVER been asked to place my items at the front counter while I continued to browse. I won't be coming back to this location.
