Nick,
Do you remember the trains displays at Halle Brothers 7th floor toyland in Cleveland? I remember when Super O came out. Oh to have had a camera. (Keep in mind I'm 68).

Mr. Jingaling at Halle’s! And The Hobby House on Huron, Trading Post on Pearl Road and my favorite, Jaye and Jaye Trains in East Cleveland. All Cleveland area train stores. Those were good times.
Hi Dave,
Not sure the last time you were in town but there are no longer any department stores in downtown Cleveland, or Akron for that matter.
I did have the good fortune to interview Mr Jingaling (Earl Keyes) at his home some years ago. I must find that tape.
Hobby House on Huron was always the last stop downtown because the 15 Union Avenue trackless trolley stopped there.

I left Cleveland for sunnier climes ten years ago, and they were all gone by then. Just happy memories now!
