Tinee Giant

Here's another Norfolk dead brand - Tinee Giant.

I wanted to introduce something more geometric. I'm bringing a Vesica piscis to form an eye (or a tiny giant. I see both).

A bit about Tinee Giant/Giant Open Air Market:
(from Wikipedia)

Giant Open Air Market was a Norfolk, Virginia-based supermarket chain. Its trademark stores were open 24 hours a day, and the entrance was framed with an arch which rose to over 30 feet, anchored in concrete.

The chain grew to include 26 full-line grocery stores and 43 "Tinee Giant" convenience stores. The stores were known for the vastness of the variety in the selections. The international line of groceries that they carried attracted national press at the time. Giant Open Air Markets would carry exotics like chocolate-covered ants from Japan, pickled eel, English teas, Greek and French cheeses and Russian caviar as well as Latin American foods. The sign over the front door read "Finest Foods of the World", reflecting their diverse selections.
