Being one of Salem’s oldest retailers, Coon’s Card and Gift Shop has a long standing tradition of providing Salem residents and visitors alike with unique gifts, affordable souvenirs, a huge selection of discounted greeting cards and friendly customer service.  This is something Karen Davis has worked diligently to continue over the years since taking ownership in 2002.

Coon’s was originally established in 1953 as a jewelry store by its founding owner, Arthur Coon.

Over the last six decades it has changed locations several times throughout the city, each time expanding and growing into the eclectic gift shop it is today.

Coon’s is the home of Penelope’s Pet Boutique which merged into Coon’s in 2014, supplying Salem with a variety of pet apparel, gifts, toys and locally baked treats.  On most days, you can find Jorge, Karen’s faithful Yorkie behind the counter!
