Talk about dinosaurs, anyboby remember Fedway? My dad worked for them defore he died, about 1956-57. They were the first in Bakersfield with the Radarange, Amana’s early microwave oven. About all it could do was bake potatoes, and it cost as much as a good used car.Our first tv (the first on the block) was a floor model from that store.  
Our house got real popular, real fast. 🙂  
Peace,
