1950’s Star Ledger photo of the Ocean Grove North End pavilion.  There are no shorts, and the dresses are well below the knee.  Can’t read the name of the movie.

1930’s Avon lifeguards before they had hyphens or women.  But they were still by-the-sea. Star Ledger photo.

   Movie title: “New Jersey Premier” on the bottom; 2 words on the top?

   If it is a Shirley Temple movie the only titles that make sense based on the size of to words are The Little Colonel or The Little Princess

   The Strand is presenting a Shirley Temple movie, and it looks like three words to the title. Free popcorn for the answer…………

   Many of those suits were actually rented for the day. Nice thought, huh?
