Every one of them.
Topo Gigio was such a little weirdo.
I preferred Señor Wences. Close de box!

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.

6:42 The ice cream parlor was named Shore Maid. Directly across the street was the back entrance of Read's Drug Store.

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"!
