Then. Eglinton TTC station, 1960s.

I remember that Laura Secord store (in the middle distance) as being quite large and busy. The salesladies wore a white uniform; many were older ladies; many were high school girls...

I also remember their candy being a premium product... one could give or receive a box of Rowntree or other makers chocolates but Laura Secord was a statement/status product. Also, for many, many years — right up to the present day — you can buy pink- or blue-foil-wrapped chocolate cigars to celebrate "happy new arrivals." 

Now. August 2012.
