5.0 out of 5 stars
Fun and fascinating nostalgia,
By A Customer
This review is from: Roadside New Jersey (Paperback)
When I first found this book on the shelf of a local bookstore and thumbed through it, gazing at the many photos, I was astounded by how many things I recognized. Then I found some sites from my very own hometown and was delighted. However, I knew I had to have the book when I found a chapter devoted to a local woman who has milkjugs all over her lawn. For years, we have driven by the house and a few friends and I have puzzled over her milk jug creations (an American Flag, Mickey Mouse, Santa Clause among others). The chapter explained how she started this strange habit. There are plenty of great little anecdotes. I recommend the book to anyone who likes to look at Americana, from classic diners to goofy signs and such, and especially to the denizens of New Jersey (prepare to be surprised by how many of these things you've seen before!
