  • <p>Roxy Gardens 240 Guildford Road, Maylands, WA 6051 – Freddo Frogs 1930’s</p>
            
              <p>Cinema-goers will remember the sweets and ice-creams which were sold in the theatre shop, or if it was crowded the milk bar opposite. The ice-creams were usually Peter’s ‘Dixie’, cups, eaten with a little wooden spoon. Later in the 30’s /40’s  sweets included tough chewing ‘Choo-choo’ bars, Freddo Frogs for one cent, along with the mighty lasting ‘Cobber’ blocks. Licorice of various types, while not forgetting in the 50’s, ‘Fantales’ with minature biographical quips & comments, featuring film stars on the wrappers.</p>
            
              <p>Of note : Freddo Frogs – It is a little-known fact that Freddo Frog was the star of the first Australian television cartoon. Forty years previous he hopped out of his dressing room, applied a little stage make-up to downplay his bulging eyes, cleared his throat, and leapt on to the small screen – Contributed by Greg Lynch – <script type="text/javascript">
