Trick or treated on Baker Street one street over from Dayton where I lived. Elderly Mom in a rocking chair invited us in and had her middle aged single son give out Captain Marvel and Superman Golden Age comics from the 1940's, two to each kid from a pile of 50 or so, saying something about cleaning out the attic and thought you boys would like them. I read them and traded my two for newer comics in the next month thinking I got the better deal. Using the power of looking back after all these many years, this was not one of my smartest moments in Flint life. The only one probably sorrier than me looking back at what slipped through our hands was her son to his last days.BJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3244123422713926575.post-45612956168555471082010-11-15T14:17:50.878-08:002010-11-15T14:17:50.878-08:00Awesome pic!

Over in the Salisbury St. neighborhood it was normal to make two or sometimes three trips to hit all of the houses that gave out candy. From Blackington and Salisbury to over past Coolidge.

If so, I wonder if he remembers me? i still have photos somewhere of MK with a bunch of friends.
