That. Is. AWESOME!!! Seeing commercials from other cities is so weird, I bet traveling to the future would kinda feel like that. Like going to a hotel in a different state and all the channels on the TV are back asswords... just a weird feeling.
Oh my Lord. I remember the Pigeon dance as my niece used to crack me up when doing it in the early 90s. I had no idea it was the orgin of The Chicken dance!!
Here is the other huge advertiser in New York City for electronics and appliances in the 70s and 80s. Crazy Eddie!! If you grew up in that era you'll never forget the constant barrage of ads for The Wiz and Crazy Eddie!! Prices so low thay are INSANE!!!
WOW!! The first thing I recognized was The Sportatorium. That was the famous, now torn down, home of World Class Championship Wrestling. The story of WCCW and especially the Von Erich Brothers is probably the most stunning, hard to believe story in the history of pro wrestling. And sure enough, they were giving away wrestling tickets in this ad. From selling out Texas Stadium to death and destruction.......talk about "the rise and fall" it was WCCW.
So even though I've never been to Dallas, i know about the Carrolton Mall and the Sportatorium!! I amaze myself sometimes!!
Felt like I was gunna be shanked walking around The Sportatorium... if the Carrollton Mall is still there I'd be shocked. That city used to be more lower middle class but it took a sharp upward turn in household income during the 2000's along with Plano, Frisco, Grapevine, Denton, Lewisville among others north and northwest of Dallas city limits. Most of the cities northeast took another 15 years to boom... and it's still booming. All those cities probably only show Porsche, Audi, and Mercedes commercials now.
Maybe its because they advertised on Yankee Stadium and possibly Shea Stadium outfield walls jn the 90s?? That's howbi knew they were real.
I was literally just reading about him. Was looking into Footsie Britt's actions at Anzio and it mentioned Nero and Caligula were born there. Not a good reputation for Anzio!
...cool card!
They really are. He was the first soldier in Europe to receive the 4 highest military honors in WWII.
If Nero ever gave me that come hither, come to Butt-head look, I'd run like Hell! Just sayin'.
I do remember the addy's at Shea.........
Picked up this high # SP for my set for $2........I have about 6 more to show in the near future that are in the same shape; centered, nice corners, but Cardinals, which are hard to come by in Memphis.......
'66 Brock, love this picture.
Do you need this for your set @metsman1986? I put some other 66 Topps in my trade list in signature. Of course all the non-HOF are nicely centered
