It seems Mogollon counted more than one General Store:
My favorite Spaghetti Western, "My Name Is Nobody," filmed several scenes in Mogollon. One side story of the film was an abandoned gold mine that sprang back to life (albeit with stolen gold).

The general store has been rebuilt, and the Snappy Lunch building is still there.
