I discover paperbacks at Woolworths

I  spend most of my Saturday  going in to town in Far Rockaway,  These were very special days for me. I would bring my favorite foods, or other times I would eat at the counter at Woolworths .  I would always see a new movie at the Strand. And then to the books at Woolworths . Many of the books from the 1960 are from there. They were in the back on the left.

I found these amazing photographs on google images and it led me to this blog.

Footnote Maven: This photo is the reason I believe my family motored out to Edgemere. My Grandfather loved to drive and was fond of what he called hot cars. Once on a visit to New York he took my sister and me for a ride in his Karman Gia which he called the “Hottest Car On Long Island.”
