Lots of Great Local Businesses


July 7, 1976 Appleton Post-Crescent

In the throes of a Wisconsin winter?!  Dreaming of those summer months?  Let's travel back in time to summer, 1976 and see what the local merchants are offering....

With the Bi-Centennial fresh on everyone's minds, the Bank of Menasha is offering a patriotic souvenir, an Uncle Sam bank, during the sidewalk sale.  Just the ticket to start saving to buy one of those Twin City Savings' CDs.  Check out those rates! 

Fire up the grill with burgers from Bob's Red Owl and lounge in a lawn chair from OK Hardware.  Admire that green lawn you've cultivated by virtue of their sale on Scott's lawn products.  And if the barbecue is a flop, you can always tool on over to Dave's Burger Shanty for some cheese curds with your burgers.  End the day by firing up that Tiparillo from Captain's Korner's 11th anniversary celebration while listening to your CB radio from Tip Top. 

Isn't 1976 great?!
