But, these prices actually appeared in advertisements in The Reporter back in 1932: pound of coffee 19c, loaf of bread 10c, pound of beef stew 9c, pound of bacon 14c, fresh pumpkin pie 15c, head of lettuce 4c, can of olives 9c, pound of butter 22c, bunch of vegetables 2c, a pack of cigarettes 10c, and you could send Junior to the Vacaville Theatre for 10c. That all added up to $1.24. vacahc@gmail.com 911 48298675894 Publication/Article CaVaHC http://media.vhcdb.org/articles/911/ Read Article http://www.solanohistory.net/articles/911/911.1.pdf PDF Document
