CHRIS WROTE:
Your website brought back many cherished memories and a some surprises. I was born and lived on Julia Avenue from 1946 until 1968, and attended Lalor School where I was in Elma Borden's First Grade class. My father was born in Deutzville, and lived in the area until his passing several years ago. He worked at the Mack Toy Works as a second job after his service in WWII during the period before Christmas when there was need for extra labor making toys for the holiday. I have searched far and wide for an example of their goods and never found anything with the brand. Do you have any thoughts as to whether any examples of the toys made there might be on exhibit or sale? I would also like to locate the names of my 1960 graduating class from Lalor School, and would appreciate any help in this regard. Thanks
I found a very old business card from Ace Upholstery. It has the name Phil Oran on it and it says he was formerly with Mack Toy Works. I googled the information and your blog came up. Do you know this person or any information about him? I would love to give this card to his family. You can email me at markandstacey10@Verizon.net
