While scaning a 1975 Summernationals program for a guy I fould this ad.
$7.00 Sat & $10.00 on Sat. & Sunday $

How things change and time goes by so fast, just think our grand kids will say :
Back in 2014 my grandpa pd only $ 125.00

If the Summernationals were $9.00 in 1971, how could the US Nationals only be $10.00 in 1975?

Wally was still around !

I seem to remember $6 or $7 in 75. It was my first trip to Englishtown and I still have a T shirt in the wrapper from that event.

How many of us have seen a 10 fold increase in our salary to keep up with this one?
