Happy New Year, 1964!

December 31, 1963, Neenah-Menasha Daily Northwestern

Once again we bring you a Menasha Blog tradition, the New Year's parade of little ads from local businesses offering good wishes for the coming year.  The latter portion of 1963 was especially sad and tragic, so the country looked forward to 1964 with restored hope that the new year would bring hope and prosperity and the best of everything.  A little four piece band from England spent the next year pretty much taking the worldwide spotlight and, with all that attention, gave us all a respite from our sorrows and troubles.  And, oh yes, (or should I say yeah, yeah, yeah) some pretty good music for the ages.
