Manhattan Market Moving Ads – Sept. 1963

I’ve mentioned the well-remembered Manhattan Market grocery store on this blog a few times, including when the store moved back in September 1963.

It had relocated from its 11th and Broadway location further south to a former Fisher store.

Well, in the interest of being thorough, here are the two ads announcing both the upcoming move and the completion of it.

The first ad ran in the Lorain Journal on September 14, 1963. I like those cartoon heads. The women all look like First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. Note the one, lone man; a similar ad today would of necessity have to include more males, since we seem to do most of the grocery shopping!

And here’s the second ad, announcing that the new store was open.
