Back then the malls would have tons of entertainment trying to lure the public into the new age of retail shopping. Once they got it going they phased out the huge entertainment budgets; now that the mall traffic has dropped maybe the mall managers/merchants association will bring back the traffic building entertainment.

TNT & Royal Olypmic Circus, The Tegge Family, had a very nice route of mall dates at that time. Let's hope history repeats itself.; 16 January, 2009 08:55

I think the year of that photo was either 1974 or 1975.; 16 January, 2009 22:39
