Time←←Machine: 90 years ago this week in Pocomoke's newspaper; plus 1988.

 
(Note: This week, as last, an archived edition of the Worcester Democrat 100 years ago wasn't available so we're using this week in 1936.)






                                                                            

*May 1988



The Star Democrat (Easton)

(Note: Hattie Clarke passed away in 1992.)


When I was a wee lad admission to the Marva was 35 cents. When I became an adult (over age 12) the price increased to the outrageous fee of 75 cents!

Your friend,

I'm probably a little older, or "less youthful," than Slim so I recall when the Saturday afternoon matinee was 25 cents for kids.
