Congratulations!!!! Thank you for brightening my days through reliving my childhood in New Jersey :) I can't wait to see what else you have in store for your blog!!!
I remember going to local Acme near Metchen,NJ as a kid. The Acme opened maybe around 1956-57 and closed in early 1991. It then was gutted and became a Walgreen's. I wish I had a picture of it. It was never remodel on the outside. But probably in the Late 70s or early 80s it was slight remodel. A&P moved behind Acme in the Early 70s. Slowly taking their sales away eventually struggled to stay afloat. Anyway you should check that former Acme out for youself! I give more Info if you need it!
