I NEVER REALIZED I WOULD BE DELIVERING MAIL IN THAT AREA FOR THREE YEARS. I WORKED THAT PART OF W. STATE ST. FROM WILLOW TO CALHOUND IN THE 1950'S WHEN THOSE PEOPLE GOT THREE DELIVERIES A DAY. THOSE DOCTORS ON W. STATE ALL GOT MANY SAMPLES THAT DROVE ME NUTS. I REALLY ENJOYED THE TOUGH WORK OF SERVING THOSE PATRONS INCLUDING ALL THE POLITICIANS. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.Ralph Lucarellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06710107087683397946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19041693.post-60255514429160746442011-12-14T08:18:37.124-05:002011-12-14T08:18:37.124-05:00SJ, thanks to Sally Lane we still have the Kelsey ...SJ, thanks to Sally Lane we still have the Kelsey to admire since the "Town Fathers" intended to demolish it a few years back. I too took ceramics on Capitol Street and art in the Kelsey upper floor that had a wonderful skylight. In the 1950's and 60's knowing most of the bus drivers by and I can even remember one summer day making a game of seeing how many places we could ride on bus transfer slips.<br /><br />Ed MillerickAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19041693.post-22968287381150072012011-12-14T01:10:41.047-05:002011-12-14T01:10:41.047-05:00I do remember the corner clock from Trenton Junior...I do remember the corner clock from Trenton Junior College and School of Industrial Arts, in (I'm thinking) 1953. As a second grader I was given a "scholarship" to study on Saturdays with kids my age, along with many that were much older. We had classes up on the fifth floor of this and over a block or so on Capitol Street where there were some very good ceramics and sculpture studios.<br /><br />How did a second grader get here from South Clinton Ave? Either walk (by yorself) or or take the Trenton Transit.SJBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01396634140715010591noreply@blogger.com
