What do old time theaters, vintage candy and old memories have in common? Vintage candy isn’t quite as old as you thought. Come with me as we study the world of vintage candy and Nickelodeons.
Let us take a trip back to the early years of the 20th century. Vaudeville and stage performances ruled the day. In June 1905, the Harris Brothers opened the very first Nickelodeon Theater in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. The name came partially from the Greek word “odeion” meaning “roofed over theater”. Of course, the word “nickel” preceded it since it cost 5 cents to enter. Because technology had not yet advanced to the synchronized sound era (this was not until the mid to late 1920’s), the serious Nickelodeons had organs or pianos that someone would sit at and add music that they felt would enhance the scene showing at the moment. They did not offer concessions. However, many sellers hawked their peanuts and popcorn either right outside the doors, or as allowed, would march up and down the aisles with goods in hand ready to sell their delightful wares at the asking price. Many other entrepreneurs would open food businesses surrounding the theater hoping people would enjoy their food services either before or after the movies. As with all great things, the Nickelodeon era soon ended with the growth of cities and industry giving rise to improved theaters. When the nickelodeons started dying out, they actually started becoming hostile to the “food environment”, thinking that ticket sales were being hurt by it!
With the changes that have taken place, from Nickelodeons to renting DVD’s at home, feel free to indulge in your favorite vintage candy.

We offer you great vintage candy. We offer you great looking packages to present it in. We offer you wholesale candy.
We all know the definition of candy. Let’s take a closer look at the other two.
What is the definition of vintage? Websters defines it as “representative of or dating from a period long past”. It also defines vintage as “of a good period, choice, representative of the best”.
What is the definition of wholesale? Again, Websters defines it as “ithe business of buying goods in large quantities and selling them especially to retailers for resale”.
We hereby offer you the best, the oldest and the way to fill that need. Our vintage candy can’t be beat. Not in it’s variety (we have over 40), and not in it’s nostalgia. And definitely not in it’s pricing or packaging.

Old time candy. What good is watching “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”, “The Terminator” or “Back to the Future”, without old time candy. In fact, what good is watching “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” without old time candy…more specifically, anything Willy Wonka!
By the 1920’s, Nickelodeons had lost their flavor. The movie era reached a new height; with people pouring millions of dollars into building new and upscale “houses” rivaling the European opera houses. One of these built during this era, would be Sid Grauman’s Chinese Theater in Los Angeles. Alas, the owners still had not caught on to what would become the boom of the business in latter years known as the concession stand.
When it did come about, things rapidly changed. Let us fast forward to present day USA. It is reported that 40% of sales come from concession. It is also reported that the mark-up costs are at about 300%, which I think most of us agree with!
In a recent survey, it was shown that 90% of the population do take their own concession stand into movie theaters. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can always rent and enjoy your old time movies and old time candy, guilt free.
