Back in the mid to late 1960's, my dad would give me 25 to 35 cents a week , I would go to the candy store right on the corner across from the grade school and the other one was a store like out of the 1930's with the candy behind the glass case, right by were my grandparents used to live. It was also spending quality time with my dad buying the older cards from the late 1800's early 1900's at flea markets.
