SATURDAYS BELONGED TO THE KIDS


Not everything during the Great Depression and WWII years was bad.

Kids had it made if they went to the movies.

Come Saturdays, they would be entertained by a full-length feature (more times than not, a shoot-em-up cowboy picture), a chapter or two of a serial, a cartoon, a comedy short subject and the latest newsreel.

Not bad for an admission of between nine and twenty-five cents.
