December 21

Come see the "Captain" Carl Reese and the cool original Christmas department store window displays from the 1940s and 1950s at Malley's Chocolate Factory on Brookpark Road off of I-480! Malley's will even have a huge Christmas tree just like the legendary tree from the old Sterling Lindner Davis department store! Make sure you're early -- the host of the 1420 "house party" will be there from 9am to 1pm this Saturday.
