do ypu gus remember pauls candy store. nickle plain homemade lomon ice and lucys it was on the cornor ok herkermer and rockaway ave how about augies grocery store on gunther place and herkermer
We lived at 1295 Herkimer St., over the Carlisle Press. Almost every day in the summer I used to go to Paul's with an empty glass pitcher and come home with one full of the best lemonade in the world. It was good to eat it with a pretzel rod.
I remember Paul's very well. My grandfather used to take me with him when he went there to buy the Italian newspaper and stand around to talk to the other older men from Italy. What a coincidence that his name was also Frank Marenghi! A little later when I was allowed to go there myself, I would buy baseball cards, pink bubble gum included, for a nickel. I can still remember the smell of a newly opened pack of cards. I had a large collection of 1957 baseball cards. Remember when we flipped cards and you took your opponents cards if you matched his heads or tails? Also, that year, the cards had the player's year by year stats on the back. I spent too much time studying those numbers. :)
