Pueblo memories from "The Stranger"

Speaking of "the golden age" I grew up in the 1950's and early 60's in a small town in Colorado, Pueblo, Colorado to be specific. Many people will tell you that that was the real "golden age" in America. And I have very fond memories of growing up in small town America.

We had three movie theaters in Pueblo. The Main, the Chief and the Uptown Theater. The Uptown was walking distance from my home. In those days walking distance was about two miles.

Long before the Internet, long before video games and long before 150 cable television channels, movie theaters had Saturday Matinees "programmed" especially for kids. The Uptown had Saturday afternoon specials with at least two features, a dozen cartoons and a few news reels and featurettes. The show would last four to five hours and cost perhaps 50 cents to attend! Of course you would buy popcorn, sodas and candy and the theater depended on that income to make ends meet. The whole afternoon might cost a dollar!

One of my "Golden Age" memories of the 1950's was a very special chocolate available only at the Uptown Theater called "Flicks." This exotic chocolate came in large wafers packaged in rich foil tubes. Flicks was the highlight of my Saturday afternoon marathons.

This was emailed to us so we can't properly attribute it.
