Palm Ice Cream, Edmonton, Alberta, 1960

  • Mon Cowwboy said:
    When I was 5 years old in 1965 I attended a kindergarten on the corner of Fort Road across from the hotel on 66 st. One of our field trips I think was to this Palm Ice cream facility. I recall being amazed by the amount of ice cream, cottage cheese and milk everywhere. Thought I was in kid heaven. Of course they gave us samples. 😁

    To provide a name to a face, this is Ellen Cox pictured in May 1946 for the Edmonton Bulletin. The seamstress, who lived at 10542 133rd Street, is engaged in making a pair of white shorts for the Dutch Marine Corps.
