No, Not Bailey's Military Uniforms/Western Wear. Even though it was on W.Van Buren nr Plymouth. But this was further west like between Dearborn & Clark. I don't remember the place, But heard about it from some story by the late Ed Schwartz on one of his shows, Manley's??????????. or something like it.
