This is just silly, which I guess is the root of most humor. If you can't read what Abe Lincoln has written, it's a warm-up to the Gettysburg Address: "And so the bartender says, 'Hey that's not a duck' (pause for laughs)"
Sharon Cramer Sceper was in town, and even came to visit me. Here's what she had to say about book covers. I used paper grocery bags like so many other people. But, I was so proud of one purchased cover that I located in one of those goofy gift stores in the malls, like Spencers Gifts. Front, Spine and Back cover for a book entitled 101 Things to Make with Human Skin.The pictures on the cover were of Lampshades, Wallets, Belts, bookmarks, coasters. It was so well done as look like the real thing. It grossed out everyone who saw it. Truthfully, I cannot recall if I was still in Junior High, or all "grown up" at Crawford. Geez, it was fun!
This ad from a 1966 Old Town tourist guide showed up on Facebook. I'm not sure our family ever got to eat in Old Town when I was younger. Actually I would have been a Senior at SDSC in 1966 and I still don't recall eating there. It wasn't long afterwards that I started hanging out at Presidio Golf and eating at Casa de Pico.
We've seen this 1955 photo before, when Casa de Pedrorena was the Mexican restaurant at 2616 San Diego Avenue.
Somewhere behind those pepper trees is 2616 San Diego Avenue today, part of Old Town State Park.
