Entrance to the Marsalis Zoo, circa 1970. In the skyline the Southland Life Building is on the right and it’s no longer the tallest office building in town.

Jack-in-the-Box at Polk and Camp Wisdom, circa 1968. Was it the northeast corner? I think this was the second Jack in Oak Cliff; the first one was on the SW corner of Illinois and RL Thornton Freeway.

really old Jack in the Box from who knows where

I still prefer the old menacing clown to the current smiley Jack. What was it with the fifties and sixties and all those threatening logos? Must’ve been that cold war mentality. Which reminds me – Anybody got a photo of the old Griff’s on Lancaster? Please send it to me!
