Amply Stocked

September 6, 1966, Neenah-Menasha Daily Northwestern

There's lots to feature here, though my focus was originally on Menasha Hardware.  Feast your eye on the local ads for all the Menasha businesses.  I'm especially impressed with the electric and water utlity's ad for getting a dishwasher.  Even little Junior and Sally can help out Mother with the drudgery of dishwashing.  And note the three gas station ads up in the corner.  They are touting themselves as "service" stations, and they were, unlike the convenience store formats we have today.  A different era, to be sure.

    Too funny.
