Introduction

MOM AND POP STORES: KINGSTON, NEW YORKBy Edwin M. Ford

Friends of Historic Kingston

When my family and friends reminisce about our younger years, the conversation inevitably turns to “Mom and Pop” stores. They are part of everyone’s experience because no matter where you lived, there was at least one in the neighborhood within walking distance of your home.My brothers and I used to walk from Delta Place to Howe’s at 47 Linderman Avenue to pick up milk, bread and canned goods for my mother.

The “Mom and Pop” store was usually one room located in a house, enclosed porch, garage or annex, and the family lived upstairs. Some of the stores carried a variety of groceries, including meat, while oth-ers sold just ice cream, candy and baked goods. Trying to recall exactly where these stores were and who operated them led me to begin researching “Mom and Pop” stores in Kingston. Since many “Mom and Pop” stores sprang up during the Depression, I used 1931 as a starting date and began to compile information found in the “streets section” of the Kingston City Directories. On a series of 3” x 5” index cards organized by neighborhoods, I recorded each business and its various owners until the store finally closed its doors.

I was able to obtain images from decades-old MLS real estate listings and from photographs taken of stores in Rondout before they were demolished during the urban renewal project in the late 1960s. When images were not available, I took slides of many buildings myself. This research inspired the Friends of Historic Kingston to present a full-scale exhibit, “Kingston’s Mom and Pop Stores,” in the museum gallery for the 2007 season. The exhibit is highlighted by a collection of photographs taken by Santino Rovereto in the 1980’s of “Mom and Pop” stores in Kingston. Our thanks to Ray Caddy for his graphic design and production and to Pat Murphy for her text. Their invaluable skills in presenting this information made this retrospective possible. We invite visitors to the exhibit to share their own memories of “Mom and Pop” stores in Kingston by writing them down for future generations.

The Mom and Pop Store

Kingston, New York

Before the world became a global village in the late twentieth century, the American city was a tapestry stitched together by neighborhoods whose “center of gravity” was the “Mom and Pop” store. Within these interior versions of the village green, news of births, weddings, sicknesses and deaths in the neighborhood was exchanged along with money.

Most were no bigger than today’s two-car garage, but they held at least one of everything found in super-size markets today. Floor-to-ceiling shelves and bins held everything you needed to make a complete meal, clean the house, quench your thirst, and cure a headache, indigestion or a “sweet tooth.” Usually near the neighborhood school, “Mom and Pop” stores were swarmed every afternoon with kids picking out penny candies from a large glass case, buying bubble gum with baseball cards inside the pack, or digging in the freezer for a Dixie cup with a movie star’s photo on the lid.

They were also home for Mom and Pop who lived in back or above, and worked seven days a week, helped sometimes by their older children. Often only a curtain separated customers from Mom and Pop’s living quarters so that the scent of pasta fagiole, pirougues or beef brisket simmering on the stove filtered from the kitchen into the storefront, along with the foreign sounds of Italian, Polish, German or Yiddish. Though “Mom and Pop” stores carried much the same merchandise, they were very different from one an-other, each imprinted with the distinct stamp of Mom and Pop’s personality.

As neighborhoods and their boundary lines dissolved into urban sprawl, “Mom and Pop” stores began to disappear from the landscape. In their place sprouted “convenience stores,” one-stop shopping minus a human face. The “Mom and Pop” store is symbolic of a time when you didn’t need a car to shop because nearly everything you needed was just a short walk away. Customers had names, not just credit card num-bers, and it was even safe to send a six-year-old down the street to buy a bag of sugar.

The Friends of Historic Kingston present this exhibit as a tribute to an American institution that once an-chored every neighborhood and will forever occupy a place in the memories we cherish from childhood.

ON PHOTOGRAPHING MOM AND POP STORES

By Santino Rovereto

My intent in photographing these “Mom and Pop” stores was to document a vanishing piece of local history for future generations of Kingstonians that would not otherwise have the opportunity to experience this unique social and economic aspect of Americana.

These “Mom and Pops” derived their name from the fact that most of them were owned and operated by husband and wife, or Mom and Pop as they were affectionately called. Mom and Pop usually lived over or next to their store and were an intricate part of the neighborhood’s character. These stores stocked an amazing variety of food and non-food items. They supplied the neighborhood with everything, including: groceries, unique delicatessen specialties, toys, clothing and quite often also carried tools and hardware. Almost every neighborhood in Kingston had one and each was unique in its own way, and yet they were all similar in one respect…..they were usually run by Mom and Pop.

I am pleased to join with Friends of Historic Kingston in presenting this retrospective. The large format, black and white images I have included in the show were taken 1981-1983 as a tribute to these great stores.

NICKEL AND DIMING

A Memory by Patricia Murphy

On a day when I had a nickel or dime in my pocket, at three o’clock, I rushed down the steps of St. Mary’s School, across Broadway and up the steps to Flickie’s.

His proper name was Mr. Flick, but I didn’t know that until I was an adult. All the children who piled into his store after school just called him “Flickie.” In my memory, he looked a lot like Santa Claus – white-haired with metal-rimmed glasses behind which were a pair of twinkling eyes.

A marble-topped soda fountain stretched down the right side of the store, but I rarely saw Flickie make an ice cream soda or sundae because both were beyond the budget of most of his after-school customers.

On the left side stood a large glass case filled with candies, each kind mounded in pyramids on plates lined with white lace doilies. There were malted milk balls, pastel-colored peppermints, long-stemmed black licorice pipes, stringy red licorice laces, jellied semi-circles that looked like sugar-coated lemon, lime and orange slices, gum drops in stained glass colors, nonpareils, and a selection of chocolate candies with cream, jelly or coconut fillings. Two popular though not particularly tasty items were false wax teeth with lips and small wax bottles that you bit the top off to swill the half-ounce of sweet colored liquid inside.

Most candies cost a penny. It would take a long time to spend a nickel. because you wanted five different kinds. Even though the store was packed with children, each waiting his or her turn, Flickie waited patiently until you pointed and said, “I’ll take one of those.” He lifted each candy from the case, handling it as though it were a jewel as he lowered it into a small brown paper bag just the right size for a child’s hand to hold. He pressed a key down on the big brass cash register and a bell clanged as a five cent sign popped up in the window. The transaction concluded, Flickie said, “Thank you.”

Flickie’s store no longer stands on the corner of Newkirk Avenue and Broadway. It was demolished in the late 1960s when urban renewal mowed down every building on the east side of Rondout from one block north of Flickie’s down the length of Broadway to the waterfront. Weeds have taken over the site.

The demise of Flickie’s meant more than the loss of a building. Concurrent with its disappearance from the landscape came a demise in civility and pride in service. Today when I stand at a store counter facing a clerk who tosses a sales slip at me while she chats with the clerk at the next counter, the man who reminded me of Santa pops into my mind and I whisper to myself, “Thank you, Flickie.”
