George & the Guys of Post Hill Road

I just received this wonderful post from one of our original fans, George Corday.  I am so happy to hear from him & to share the photos he sent.  I encourage everyone reading this to feel free to share  your stories and old images so they become part of the Living History of Mountaindale, New York.

Hi, I'm George Corday who first came to Mountaindale in 1934 when I was almost 2. I really have missed the old site and still don't understand how it was lost. Anyway, I came across these two photos that I'm pretty sure were taken in 1948. The group are guys from Feldman's, Palace Farm and Maliga's, all on Post Hill Road. We called it Post Office Road back then and hung out at night in Maliga's casino, ate junk food, played the pinballs and danced to the juke box for a nickel a song and six for a quarter. The other photo is me on the right and Marty Rubin posing with our Red Ryder BB guns and a fox we found dead on the road. Hope you can use them.
