Re: Adventure Car Hop

["Shel Swartz" <shel@lotsofun.com>]

Arnie Ginsburg told me on the phone only yesterday, that the Car Hop is now
the parking lot of the (Commodore?) hotel, in Saugus (I can'yt read my
notes!!).  But it cis now certainly a parking lot...many old Ginzburger
wrappers likely buried under its pavement...

You will soon be able to hear that famous commercial at the (gulp) WRKO
Website...
