    The Ventures/Days of Doo Wop

    Sad to inform you that Johnny Tillotson passed away at the age of 86. "Poetry In Motion", "Talk Back Trembling Lips" and many others made our radio and 45 days back then very enjoyable. Rest In Peace Johnny and thanks for the memories.

    On the north side of Northern, just east of St. Andrew's, on the corner was a drug store at that time. A FF from E16 practically ran the place except for the pharmacy are of course.

    My wife loved the chocolate layer cake from Storks. Speaking of bakeries, how about "Garden Bake Shop" on Union Tpk. on the north side of the street east of 251's house? They were great also.

    I remember that one too Kevin. The one I posted about was definitely early 50's. Come to think of it, that photo may have been in an article about eductors. (The hydrant is no longer there by Duane Read)

    Come to think of it Senior, where Woolworth's was there was a multiple in the former building back in the early 50's. There is a photo of 272 (RIP) hooked up to the hydrant on Main Street outside that building. They had a '41? Mack at the time. May have been in WNYF but i wouldn't swear to it.

    Correct Senior, That was Woolworths and "Upstairs Records" was on the 2nd floor of the building to the right of the parking garage entrance. Just an FYI across Main Street there was Gloria's Pizza and Bickfords Cafeteria. As "Archie" once sang, "Those were the days."
