Any body else remember these?
Found, neatly folded above a door frame during some recent renovations
 It sat undisturbed since 1950.

Wow. Bazooka Joe. Haven't heard that name since college. There was a kid who was always chewing it and handing it out. Perhaps he was some scion to the Bazooka Joe fortune or something. Flavor would be gone within 2 minutes, and then your jaw would ache as the gum turned to solid rubber. Stuff from a different era...

When I renovated my house in Western Mass, I found in the ceiling above the plaster an empty package of Lucky Strikes that was green, with the bullseye. Had to have been before WWII.

You may also appreciate anything you do want to, e.g. the aforementioned proverb, or any other. |

Best were Big Buddy Bubble Gum - used to chew a foot of that stuff during little league games - that and those Jolly Rancher sticks. Combine that with a Marathon Bar, a few Charleston Chews to round out an inning and I was running around like a rabbit on speed!

MMMMMM Mallo cups. Used to save the points and the rare free cup! They used to be next to the TV tube tester machine.
