I had the game and loved playing. I also remember when Topo came on Ed Sullivan show, and Professor Backwards those were the days. These pictures are a great reminder!
Wasn't there a sealtest building downtown many years ago? I remember going in there to get a scoop of ice cream when I went to the movies, or the dime store. I think it was a sealtest store.
It was located where the parking lot beside the library is now; and it was a small red brick building.
Shore Maid.....best banana splits!!!!!! They sold a "HUGH" banana split, & if you could eat it all, they gave you a pin that said, "I was a pig at Shore Maid"!
In the 50's and 60's every home I went in had bronzed baby shoes.My grandparents in Felton had a pre 1900 pair bronzed that had a flap.The left foot shoe tied on the left side.The right foot shoe tied on the right.
