Kiddie Shows

March 29, 1965, Twin City News-Record

Now there's a view of days gone by.  Loads of unattended children waiting for the show to start.  If I look closely, I might even be in that crowd!  We didn't know how good we had it, did we?  And look at what we had to look forward to:

March 21, 1965, Appleton Post-Crescent

Just make sure the kiddies are hustled out of there by 4:30.  We wouldn't want them corrupted by the 2 "adult" comedies that followed!

  2. I guess it's better than chunks of merriment.

    Not in Menasha but in Mount Vernon, Ohio, 1951, age six. My brothers and I attended the Memorial Theater on Saturday afternoons for a dime. To see... a movie, a series of Flash Gordon, and cartoons. Cool.
