ALLEN FUNT, AUDREY MEADOWS, & THE OSSINING TREASURER 1960

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton -- our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools -- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

ALLEN FUNT, AUDREY MEADOWS, & THE OSSINING TREASURER 1960

It's no secret that Candid Camera's Allen Funt lived in Croton on Mt. Airy Road....

And so we weren't really surprised to discover this 1960 Patent Trader article about a little stunt both he and television actress Audrey Meadows (of Honeymooners fame) pulled over in nearby Ossining. 

It must have been something too--and certainly reflective of a different time.
