GOOD TIMES ROLL
Uploaded: January 31, 2013
Taken at a car show last Sunday .
So how many of you had these cruising your neighborhood when you were a kid. Had to love the Good Humor Truck and it's Wonderful Cargo. In Brooklyn we even had a driver who extend you credit on your word to repay him the next day. Not a single kid that I knew of ever forgot to repay him on time. ""THOSE WERE THE DAYS""
Thanks for the kind thoughts & I'm already bored out of what mind I have left ;O)

Sounds like you could use a visit from the Good Humor man! He came to the Bronx too as well as Bungalow Bar! Great shot! #10547400Monnie Ryan January 31, 2013
Now that's a blast from the past! I lived on a farm, though, so those trucks never came our way. Ironically, now there's one on our street in the summer (but from Schwan's, not Good Humor). Hang in there! #10547448Jack Ryan January 31, 2013
Ah! Yes! I remember them well! The perfect retirement job...! Great capture, Jack. #10547478John Connolly January 31, 2013
Good humor ice cream never made it to Australia Jack, but the old F100 did! They were very popular for converting into ambulances and police paddy wagons! #10547869Mike Clime January 31, 2013
Looks like nice weather for a freezing snack! We never had this trucks in our town when I was young kid and when older we lived in the country. #10547988Barbara Waldoch January 31, 2013

Great capture Jack, I posted one during the summer that I also had taken at a car show. Definitely brings back a lot of memories as I use to stop and get one everyday on the way home from school, I still remember his name was Frank and he also would extend you credit. #10548399Jeffrey R. Bange January 31, 2013
Hey Jack I forgot to ask you if his outfit was complete with the little change maker on his belt. #10548400Robert K. Bemus January 31, 2013
