Voici des photos que j'ai pris Samedi d'une b창tisse sur la rue Gordon pr챔s de Bannantyne. Est ce que ce serait ici qu'챕tait situ챕 la boulangerie dans les ann챕es 1940 et 1950. C'챕tait probablement seulement un entrep척t.
Here are photos I took Saturday.of a building situated on Gordon not far from Bannantyne. Could this be the bakerie that existed in the 40s and 50s. It was probably just a warehouse.

Nice pics, Guy. Thats what I was refering to as the "Woodhouse" furniture warehouse from 1965+. Maybe it was used as a bakery before that. I believe the bread everyone is refering to was at "Presto" just behind it on Rielle. It might have been used as a distribution point for Wonder, POM, etc. BTW, I can still smell the POM cinnamin buns when the delivery-man used to drop them off at our door on saturday mornings. Have a good day. Mac
Hello Guy, Definitely the bakery building that I remember from the late 40's and early fifties. Stables, horse drwan wagons were all very active during that period. I still drive down Rue Gordon from Wellington to Champlain everytime I visit Verdun, it gives my harddrive a memory boost. Bob G
Bob, Do you remember the name of the bakery or the make of the bread? Guy
Brother says Weston bread, but i still think it was inter city bakery. I attached a picture of a horse drawn inter city bakery wagon.
Does anyone remember Hollywood Bread? Then there was JJJoubert Milk and Ernest Cousins Milk. JJJoubert was big in the east end of Montreal. Ernest Cousins had a few scattered customers. Elmhurst Dairy & Guaranteed Pure Milk seemed to have most of the milk business.
I don't remember any of those milk or bread company's except for Elmhurst Dairy. My dad would take us up to Elmhurst dairy to get ice creams for a treat. Those wew the days!!......Dianne
JJ Joulbert delivered on Gordon and kept some of their horses and wagons at the corner of Decarie and Upper Lachine Road until at least 1958, after that my memory is blank. Anybody seen the laughing cows, I necver heard back from the fellow that wrote the article about (Les Vache que ris,) guess he gave up Please excuse the spelling. Bob G
My Grandmother ate Hollywood Bread because it was low in sugar because she
was a diabectic, at least that is what she told us as kids
Hollywood Bread had the Martinee in it that's Y it was good . Steve (give)
