Standing on Addison Street, just down the way from Wrigley Field, stands Yesterday, an old-school shop in a half decrepit building, older than Wrigley Field itself. That's just how owner Tom Boyle likes it. The man doesn't have an email address, let alone a computer in the store. Yesterday only accepts cash and checks (yes, remember those?). Why go to all this trouble? Boyle, an avid collector, has filled his shop to the brim with comic books, magazines, newspapers, board games, baseball cards, and old Cubs memorabilia dating far back. Trust us, the trip is well worth it.
