The Record

The Record was a local paper printed at 175 Shepherd Ave. In the sixties, my brother and I used to buy copies direct from the printer for 2 cents and sell them for 5 cents each. I don't know much of the history yet; when it first published, when it stopped, who owned it, etc. Paula Curci sent me some scans from a 1961 edition which featured her father Michael Curci and my brother found a 1938 edition.



Paula Curci sent in these scans of an issue from February 2, 1961. Note the great ads.


My brother tracked down this Sept. 29 1938 issue. Tragic story of a boy killed on the way to P.S. 65. .
