Yup, I was a paperboy from about 1967 to 1969. Here's a shot of my brother and I in 1968 about to set off on our paper routes. I'm riding my brand spanking new red Raleigh Record 10-speed, bought for about $70 with my paper delivery proceeds. My brother is riding his Schwinn Lemon Peeler Stingray that he got for christmas. The hardest parts of this job were trying to collect money from deadbeat adults, and delivering in the pouring rain.
