April 1953

A now-forgotten player in
Kiddieland Park history.
The latest from 79 Wistful Vista:

Ultimate Fibber McGee & Molly accident:  Run into the house, slip on the kitchen floor that has a fresh coat of Johnson's Wax, and tumble into the closet, causing the door to open and ....well you know the rest.

Yeah, yeah, I can hear you now.  
"T'aint funny, Wells."

Three cheers for Summer fashions ... and their contents!

Of course, instead of barbecue, you could serve this beer
with Jax Hamburgers.   Hardee har har.

A visual feast of 1953 product packaging!  (And see how many you can find that are duplicated to take up more space.)
