Economy Candy 🍭 in the Lower East Side is celebrating its 80th birthday this year.

Economy Candy specializes in old-fashioned chocolates 🍫, candies 🍬, nuts, and dried fruits 🍌 🍏. We love their amazing selection of hard-to-find #vintage candies. To celebrate their birthday 🎉 they just recently changed their #signage but we still love the sign seen in this photo taken in 2010 for our book "Store Front II-A History Preserved". When we interviewed the 2nd-generation owner he told us that their "inventory is basically everything I like to eat." #storefront
