Yes, the Indian cliff/mocassin store in on 3/28 in Hooksett - I saw it was for sale a few years ago - haven't driven by lately to see if it's still there, and what it has become.

Guess I'm older than you - I remember when orange soda in a bottle (Crush, not Fanta) was 10 cents plus 2 cents deposit.

Thanks for the reply,

Capt, I don't know about PB's claim about being the oldest in the country.
The Indian Cliff place is still there, and it is for sale...again. Seems like it is being offered for sale more often than not. It hasn't changed much over the years, other than the for sale sign being updated every couple of years.

And as far as the age goes, well, I was buying the 25 cent sodas in the early-mid 1970's. We moved from that area in 1977.
