I love the stylized black cat clip art.
The ad hearkens back to an era where the Halloween parade was a pretty big deal in Lorain, along with the Downtown window-painting contest. Things like that really united the city back then.
As for Brady's, I'm constantly impressed by the creativity that went into the restaurant's promotions (such as the "Lucky Chair" mentioned in the ad). The owners ran a lot of ads and the restaurant must have really achieved top-of-mind awareness for so many people to remember it fondly.

Maybe you should interview John Brady while he's still around! As far as I know he's still in Lorain.
You know, that is an excellent idea. Thanks, Lee!
