Boys in the Back Room
I posted this picture before. It is a picture of the Bowery Boys that on the Silver Screen hung out in the back room of either a malt shop or a drug store.
As I remember their stories on the screen, when a crime by gangsters occurred the Bowery Boys would do what they did best: Play keep-away of the stolen jewels or a map to a hidden gold mine or something sinister.
Could you imagine walking into Walgreen's, CVS, or a yogurt shop a hold-up took place and suddenly out of the back room a bunch of middle-aged teenagers skip run out with perfect choreography play keep-away with the look the bad guys just stolen. Wow!
Every ice cream shop and drug store had a bunch of 30 something teenagers hanging out in the back room.
