Re: Old Street Scenes
Jay
Welcome here and cool old shots too...  Ditto what Sam said about Ohio plates, our's were A***C. Akron area. My Dad always said it would be neat to drive out of the area to get a differant letter combo. Do you ever go to the Friday cruise at the A&W in Boardman, or Saturday Night in Boardman ? I always pass through Berlin Center on my way out 224 to Boardman. And as I pass the sign in Canfield I always think of poor Sam stuck out in all that AZ sunshine...  Cool Stuff  Mike

Re: Old Street Scenes
Thanks for the welcome! I'm actually from Canfield too and the majority of these pics were taken in the Canfield/Ellsworth area with a few from North Jackson. All of my family is from this area and is still here.
I grew up cruising 224 and even State Street down in Salem. I still go to Boardman when I can to check out the Chili's parking lot at the mall. It has a lot more room than A&W. It's nice to meet you all. I'm glad I was directed to this place.

Re: Old Street Scenes
-------OK all you Akron area boys,,,what was the name of the drive-in on the south west side of Akron??? It was in the Barberton/Norton area (not far from Knafel, maybe?), and had some serious iron running thru it almost every night. Also, the little drive-in in Wadsworth on the west side of town right on 224??? For being in Wadsworth that little place drew some bad boys!!!.....Bill S
