<p>[QUOTE="harrync, post: 8143966, member: 58588"]We must have lived in the high rent district since my brother and I got 50c each for movies and treats, late 1940's. [Actually, my dad bought our house for $3,500 in 1940.] For you gas price people, he filled up at a station on Crenshaw Blvd [yeh, LA] for about 10c/gallon where they hand pumped the amount of gas you wanted up into up into a glass cylinder and then let it drain by gravity down into your tank. [The car was a Franklin with a cool rumble seat.] When my dad died in the 1990's he still had several hundred walkers [he liked to plan ahead.] I still have a few of them, though most have gone for substantially over face, including some nice 38D's. [It took a few years, but I finally figured out why my mom and dad wanted to get us out of the house.][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
