For those who are scattered all over the globe, I am listing two of my recent "Sentimental Journey" columns which are published bi-weekly on the Times of Trenton website, http://www.nj.com/mercer. Below are two links to the Times' website. Clicking on either one will take you to recent "Sentimental Journey" columns. (One wherein Tom Glover and Don Slabicki have fun with the incredible novelty products of the Johnson Smith Company, Racine, Wisconsin. The Other a bittersweet recollection of my very first car, a 1938 Ford Business coupe'.)
Clicking on each link will bring you to the URL of the above columns.
NOTE: WHEN YOU CLICK ON THE FIRST LINK BELOW, YOU WILL SEE THAT IT OPENS ON PAGE 2. ("NOVELTY ITEMS"). IN ORDER TO READ THE COMPLETE "NOVELTY ITEMS" COLUMN, GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE AND YOU WILL SEE A LINK TO PAGE 1. CLICK ON "PREVIOUS" OR "1," AND YOU WILL
BE TAKEN TO THE BEGINNING OF THE COLUMN.

I still have a copy of the Johnson Smith catalog - it's fascinating to lokk back at the "amazing" stuff you could get for very little money. Rereading it is a nostalgia trip!
