Swampy’s Florida Matchbooks: Bus, Lumber & Cleaning in Orlando, 1940s.
This is unusual, a matchbook with multi-advertisements.I’d say this matchbook is from the late 1940s.
The Orlando Transit Co. is now known as Lynx and has bus service over 5 counties in Central Florida.
Mills and Nebraska (with the “Worlds Largest Board”) closed almost 17 years ago when the entire area was demolished for a mixed use development that never quite happened.
I don’t know what became of the Florida Cleaning Company. It might still be around with a different name or long gone. If you know, please leave what you know in the comments below.
