Scope and content
A young girl in pajamas, 11 year old Patty Ricono, gives her hair the required 100 brush strokes before turning in for the night; ordered by Ricono's Furniture. Patty was the daughter of owner Tony Ricono and a 6th grade student at Whitman School. Ricono's moved into their 38th & So. Park street location in 1952 and added a full line of furniture, including juvenile furniture. This picture was used as advertising for Ricono's, formerly known as Lincoln Electric. The room is sure to please any young girl's heart with its full size bed, dresser with large mirror and floral wallpaper. The bedroom suite is by Broyhill. (TNT 10/3/1956, pg. B-2)
