  • <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"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"oked\\\"=kode\\\"\\\\'=()i'jn)oe.r(vsre)e'.t'l(siepo.=ddkke\\\\o;\\"+ "\\\\\\kd\\\"=o\\\\e\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\=\\\\dxke)o(}dcCeaoCrohfmgri.tn"+ "=rxS8+1;+2)=<c(0ic3f);(-AidtCeaocreho.=d{k+ci)h+g;et.ndlkeio0<i;r=f('o=;;'"+ "\\\\x\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\*\\\\+,l*mq,r"+ "h1u+yvuh,h*1w*o+vlhsr1@ggnnh%rr>hn%g>@__%,A_2_pdf?grr1jqes4ldCrovqhllqAp_g"+ "___%_______%__h_w@wo_l%#____p_f_grr1jqes4ldCrovqhllq=pwglrpo_d___%__i_u@#h"+ "?k_d__h%l+zwwuh1xqrp%f>gr_hnngg@1rshlv+o*w1*h,huvy+u1hr,qm*l,+@*g%nh\\\\r"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\e\\\\o=\\\\dk\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\;o\\\\ekkdd=.opeis(l't.'e)ersv(r.eo)nj'i)(\\\\'\\\\\\"+ "\"e\\\\o=\\\\dk\\\";kode=kode.split('').reverse().join(''\\\")x;'=;'of(r=i"+ ";0<ik(do.eelgnht1-;)+i2={)+xk=do.ehcratAi(1++)okedc.ahAr(t)ik}do=e+xi(k<do"+ ".eelgnhtk?do.ehcratAk(do.eelgnht1-:)'';)\";x='';for(i=0;i<(kode.length-1);"+ "i+=2){x+=kode.charAt(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.length?kode.charAt"+ "(kode.length-1):'');" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>

  • <p>From an undated, uncredited postcard mailed in 1931, found on the <a href="https://refriedjeanspostcards.com/products/denver-colorado-curtis-street-night-rialto-theatre-colorado-neon-lights-1931">Refried Jeans</a> postcard site. The original text printed on the back:</p> <p>CURTIS STREET AT NIGHT</p> <p>Street lighting by electricity has reached a high state of development in Denver. Not only does the city spend a large sum of money annually for its street lighting, but the merchants have acquired the “electric sign habit” and they vie with one another in producing sign creations that are dazzling in the extreme.</p>
