I struck up a conversation with Jerry Hunter and wife Sue while having dinner at Nolan's earlier this summer and we reminisced a little about how he and brother Charlie bought the business in the late 1970's. My oldest daughter worked at Hunters IGA as a summer checkout cashier in late 80's / early 90's.

Ha Ha, just noticed the Christmas trees lining the sidewalks so I modified the Title. Only remnants of snow & ice. Only 38.9 for Good Gulf Gas. Yum Yum Shop was then on the opposite side of Main Street. See the colored letters spelling it out.

Can't forget to mention the Ford Dealership in the photo directly across the street from the Gulf station (you can barely see the blue Ford logo sign hidden behind the telephone pole in back of that white 1965 Chevrolet Impala). The Ford Dealership was in the old stable which still exists today but now as a bunch of various smaller shops.......
