The above ad appeared in the paper on October 12, 1970. Except for the fact that social distancing rules aren't being followed, the ad would fit right in with today – with the availability of home-delivered apple cider and trick or treat candy.
It’s still kind of strange that Halloween isn’t canceled this year (although it’s not so strange when you realize how important the holiday is to retailers).
The second Lorain Creamery ad is from Wednesday, October 21, 1970.
It’s funny seeing how certain masks seem to be in style while others aren't.
Early in the pandemic, I couldn’t find any surgical type masks in any store. So I bought a few red and blue bandanas and wore them to death.
It took great restraint not to accessorize them with my Joel McCrea-style cowboy hat.

Post a picture with the hat, Dan!
I’ll think about it, Alan! It’s just like the kind that Mr. McCrea wore in some of his later movies, including "Ride the High Country" (a personal favorite).
If I lived in Texas like you, I'd probably wear it all the time!
