ROCK ON — Provenance
- Alles Mannheim (local history blog) ('Mannheims bester Plattenladen von 1978-1982' -- run by Ruth and Klaus Hiltscher at Quadrat N5,2; closed 1982 for financial reasons; central to the local punk/new-wave scene. No month given for the 1982 closure, so closed_date left null rather than guessed.) April 2023
- Flickr (khiltscher) (Period photo (dated 1978 in caption) of the ROCK ON storefront, captioned 'Der führende Rock / Punk & Metall Laden in Süddeutschland'; corroborates the shop's existence and N5 location.) August 2026
