…and I better get “This Strip”… especially for $2!!!

This hilarious ad is from a copy of ‘This Week’ from November 8th, 1953. ‘This Week’ was an advertising circular for many, many years around Broward County.

If you have any memories of this ‘This Week’, the Port-O-Cal Motel or Fort Lauderdale, please feel free to leave them here!

Grew up in Fort Lauderdale, used to go to the Port o call with my folks. It was a real treat for us as we didn’t have a lot of money.

Thank you for your note! What was the Port-O-Call comparable to? Was it like Morrison’s or Denny’s?
