Ed, the balloon guy was actually the Abramowicz brothers. I personally sold balloons with Minzy Abramowicz on the corner of Olden and Brunswick Avenue, right outside the White Castle. I’m 70 years old, and I did this when I was about 15 or 16. So I would think at this time the Abramowicz brothers are gone. But yes, the balloons were great and a lot of fun.

Time Gone By

Thanks for the history. Can anyone out there confirm whether the Abramowicz brothers are, indeed, deceased?—Ed. Note
