Front page of the New York World-Telegram dated August 7, 1945 featuring the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. The World-Telegram was in circulation from 1867 to 1966. We all remember NYC based newspapers that are no longer in business. Many of our families had the paper delivered to our homes, daily. Some of us worked for the newspapers, and quite a few of us delivered newspapers!

/ December 14, 2017I delivered the Long Island Press starting in 1970. My paper route was in the Bay Terrace section of Bayside. Our “boss” was named Rollo (that’s all we knew him as) and he would drop off my papers on my front porch. As soon as I got home from school, I would fold, rubberband and put them in my delivery bag, then hook the bag onto the handlebars of my stingray bike. I delivered to the private houses and townhouses that flanked the Birchwood Towers. Wednesday’s papers were tough because they had all of the store advertisements included in them. Saturday’s were the easiest because they were usually wafer thin on that day. The memories!!!
