Where would you see this building? What famous store was originally located inside it?

Answer:
This storefront, which is of course on Main Street U.S.A., was originally home to Hollywood Maxwell's corset and intimate apparel shop, sometimes playfully known as The Wizard of Bras.

The responses I received were:

Shannon
On Main Street and that is the old brassiere shop...

Jeff Toro
I know its on Main Street, but don't know what store. Was it the one Steve Martin worked at, the Magic Store?

Kirby
This building on the east side of Main Street U.S.A. was originally an Intimate Apparel shop - Hollywood Maxwell's ("The Wizard of Bras"). It closed within a year of the park opening.

(I can't find my copy of Disneyland - the Nickel Tour, which has more information! How could I misplace that book?)
-- I hope you find it! A quick look on Amazon shows me that used copies are going for nearly $200. I'd hate to lose that!
