1957 Woolworth's Menu

1957 Woolworth Menu

Just the other day I was telling one of the kids at work about eating lunch at Woolworth's. Then I open my e-mail account and find a 1957 menu from the Woolworth Lunch counter, sent in by Benny Brown. Click the picture to get a better view. The prices look to be low, but growing up in a large family, eating at Woolworth's was a rare treat!

Since then, prices, taxes and things got crazy, but make no mistake about it, with the "Good Old Days" came problems like the Cold War, Air Raid Drills, Fallout Shelters...

The Good Old Days were good....but not great..just different.
