I lived on Elliot Street, Lombardy and Forcade as a very young boy. I remember going into Lorino's and buying the old Monster trading cards with Frankenstein, Werewolf, Creature from the Black Lagoon, etc. I remember it was mostly dark and there was a shuffleboard table. It was great to live in that area in the early 1960's. The triangular shaped park on Elliot had a great Monkey bars that was a Cowboy on each end and the rungs were fairly high for a boy 6, 7 or even 8 years old. We played in that park a lot without supervision and we felt safe. Our doors were usually unlocked. My friends and I regularly picked up pecans from the ground in anyones yard and never got scolded for it. We had the Eastwood Theater a few blocks up Telephone towards downtown. Those were days when there was double features. I remember the first Jack-In-the-Box I saw going in there at Telephone close to Dumble. The old neighborhood is being renovated house by house and coming back into respectability.
