The Bargain House
Last update 6/19/2023
Joe and Gene's business venture, established in 1950. I'd guess this was taken in the early 1950's.
Donny Lanzaro driving a Bargain House delivery truck.
A different truck than the one in the photo above.
Since Donny died in 1959 at the age of 23, I'd guess this was taken mid-1950's.
The photo was sent to me by cousin Marlene LaMura
who copied it from cousin Liz Peterson's Facebook page.
Eleven years after they opened, the first burglary occurred. It wasn't the last.

Dad died in 2000, then I moved Mom to Holmdel and the Bargain House was demolished by Joe Manzo around 2002.
