This was my Saturday Matinee movie when I was a kid. Scrubbed the neighbor’s white steps for a nickel. Added my nickel allowance and I had enough to get into the show. If Friday night company had lost change in the sofa cushions, I had enough for popcorn and a Klein Lunch Bar! Good times.
I grew up in Tioga in the ‘40s. The Great Northern was on Broad Street but could be accessed from Germantown Ave through The Arcade. The Arcade, consisting of several shops, opened on Germantown Ave.
