Along the Lynnway

rolands

Many thanks to Isabelle for sharing this fantastic 1960's era post card of Roland's Ice Cream Parlor and Waffle Shoppe that was located at 46 Lynn Shore Drive on the new "Lynnway." Their speciality was the "Kitchen Sink," an ice cream sundae meant to serve 6 or more people. If it were open today that same sundae would serve about two.
