Re: check it out

I like it. Great colors. So if it is to sell popcorn, are you going to sell a kettle type corn? Are you going to dress 30'ish? My dad had a 1925 T pie wagon( I now own). He never sold pies out of it but gave away the small 3 inch ones. He and mom dresses the 20's. People loved it.
