| Here's
a photo I took of Don's Hamburger stand in
1959. 22¢ burgers, 49¢ pizzas, 25¢
tacos, and 4 large shrimp for a number of
pennies that ends in a 4. In the
background I see Hand Packed Carnation ice
cream -- 42¢ a pint, 83¢
a quart and $1.00 for a gallon. If you
couldn't eat a gallon you could get a cone
for 15¢.
Another
great photo. Yes I remember that corner
well. It is 54th Street and El Cajon Blvd.
My Grandma lived on 54th St and my 87 year
old Mom even remembers Don's Hamburgers. She
says we ate there often. 22 cents for a
burger. I think we still have some cheap
fast food burgers around, but can't eat them
anymore! Angela
