I never knew Florida was a heavy manufacturing base. It's a shame the Midtown/Wynwood section of Miami didn't preserve it's industrial roots and invest in light manufacturing jobs instead of frivolous crap like Target.
what year is this from ? Gotta be mid-50's
I believe its from the mid 60s
The date is listed only as "1960s" in our catalog.
It has to be at least late 63. The announcer at some point mentioned "Cape Kennedy", LBJ changed the name from Cape Canaveral that year. Mid 60's is about right.
