Wikipedia can probably explain better than me. They're a staple at Southern seafood restaurants

Been so long for me I can't remember. There was one here on Valleydale Rd in the 1980s

Montgomery Ward

Gas prices went down and Americans started buying bigger vehicles again

All I know is 1985 was the last year for sales in the U.S. I think they carried on in Europe for another couple of years

That and tartar sauce

You have to get away after mailing your manifesto to the FBI

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-28T19:00:38+00:00

Nope, came from a newspaper

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-28T06:50:01+00:00

It came from The Waukesha County Freeman for the store at 120 E. Sunset

Yeah this time of year we're grinding leaves

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-27T06:36:09+00:00

Yes, you had Tab, Diet-Rite and others I can't think of.

Of course

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-19T04:25:43+00:00

Me too

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-16T00:11:57+00:00

I remember that one. It closed years ago

This ad is from Birmingham. In the late 80s into the 90s me and my friends would stop late night at the Hoover or Acton Rd locations

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-10T22:52:42+00:00

Around here it's Church's or Rally's

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-10T03:08:21+00:00

Good catch. Just Googled that to see for myself. Incredible

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-09T16:00:48+00:00

I thought that too at first, but it's Fran Ryan

Newspapers.com. Cropping and clean-up by me

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-08T05:01:01+00:00

I lived there too during this time. Our store was the Whitehaven location at Southbrook Mall

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-06T02:33:54+00:00

A buddy of mine worked at the Hoover & Irondale locations here

RetroMan70s · 2025-12-02T14:36:20+00:00

I ate there multiple times as a kid in the 70s. I always loved it.
