I have great respect and thanks for the people of the Cape Shore. They provided a living for my family for almost 30 years. My father used to go up with a van full of vegetables, meats, and baked goods, they used to call him the peddler.

The older generations were all great story tellers, and they all seemed to have a great memory.

What year was the show originally broadcast?

[@skippy10]

I think the Roman number at the end is 1981, so I guess that's it.
