Beautiful times want to go back
I was born 49 years ago on January 13th, 1974 and my parents remembered the snowstorm that hit Chicago 56 years ago.
Thank you for the memories this video brings back!
I was born 1971...My mom remembers this!
REALLY miss Kroch's & Brentanos!
Yeahhhhh....the dirty mags behind Good Housekeeping
Skitching on Cadillac’s in Sauganash!
It was Just Like Yesterday-The 1967 Blizzard in Chicago-The Chicago Tribune Ads-I was a little kid when the blizzard hit
All gone now.
Remember all too well.
Student at North Park college at the time
Brings back some good memories. My children were two and nine months old. Lived in the suburbs but all the ads were familiar. Remember my husband driving on top of the packed up snow . We had a VW and it just chugged along riding the snow. Drove from the University of Chicago to Broadview. After that he helped protect the local store owner from some very ugly acting people when supplies of milk were getting low.
Great music , fantastic video. Some of the shoppers world had blue glazed brick. Saw green hornet black beauty at the onr across from midway around 1967. Car had visable door handles.
porking the old lady next door, drinking a Lowenbrau in my underwear, smoking a pipe next to the altar at a church.....those were the days
I LOVED the 1967 Snow Storm! Two days off from high school, basically another weekend off! Oh, yay! Nice video, btw.
Wow! Thanks for putting this together! My brother was in the very last January graduating class at Lane Tech on the evening the blizzard hit. Won't forget it! I fondly remember seeing my 1st snowmobile where I lived at Belmont & Central. All these stores that are no more... Thanks again!
Your welcome.
Funny how this sticks out as we have had worse since then
Pete Kastanes - thanks for the memories. Those prices will never be seen again....
anytime
Love this! Thanks for posting! Lots of good prices back then
Love the music!
great video pete thx
Thank you!
no....I don't like it.....
Amazing how many of these I remember. Plus, High-Low foods was my first job.
Rainbow Food & Liquors was my first job (1972), but somewhere I have a folding paper "High-Low Foods Grocer's Hat". Among other "goodies" is a small "Dutch Boy White Lead Wet Paint" sign, replete with my Grandpa's name and address: "Gus Lundin 12543 S Elm, Blue Island, Ill." Probably from 1935-45?
I remember the butcher at Hi-Lo Foods, he used to have this cashier lady lick his nuts in the back, she had skidded up underware, yuck
Nothing but Memories of Chicago of Things that Ain't There No More!
Jesus Wayne, you left Chicago when you were 8, stop acting like you're a true Chicagoan
So many stores gone - SAD!!!
Love it!

This had nothing to do with the blizzard!
Yes, it does. These ads were printed in the Chicago Tribune when the blizzard occurred.
