Electric Palace
[edit] Description
The Electric Palace is run by Bart Rathbone. Though the items are generally overpriced and Bart is a scheming conniving businessman, people keep coming. Its slogan is, "If we don't have it, you don't need it."
[edit] About the Store
The Electric Palace has two stories, automatic doors, a basement, an office which apparently contains a pile maps to the store, and a small back room where Bart keeps his private things. It is built on the former site of Blackgaard's Castle, and its address is 1313 Mockingbird Road. One of its suppliers is David Saburo (likely an employee of the Bonsai Corporation), who once sold Bart a supply of talking calculators.
[edit] Owners and Employees
Bart Rathbone is the manager of the Palace, but for a long while (between its construction and the Album 25: Darkness Before Dawn era) it was owned by Dr. Regis Blackgaard. After Regis's death, his twin brother Edwin was willed the property, and is the current owner, though Bart is still the manager.
The only other employees besides Bart that have ever appeared on the show were in #323: “A Little Credit, Please” when Connie checks out her blender, and in #444a: "Career Moves", where Nathaniel Graham was an intern. This is not counting Richard Maxwell's appearance in #440: “I Slap Floor”.
