Already spoke to the owner of Elmhurst Dairy,....a fellow named Max,...but the dairy was in NY state I think it was,.......He didn't know where I could find the picture of the old sign,.but at least he laughed & did take the time to email me back........................That was last year,.....So now I'm doing my Inspector Clueso impression one more time to find these elusive Bovine. hahahahah Have Fun & Remember Verdun

ReplyDeleteCarolyne, I will vouch for you, I have been to Sam Seltzers, and yes the 3 cows are definitely there....they are huge...
ReplyDeleteRosemary, do you think you could snap a picture next time you go by the cows?
ReplyDeleteMaggie, I would love to snap a picture of the cows, but they are in Tampa, Fl, at least the ones I saw, and I am in Ontario. so I don't think that would be possible...I will ask a couple of my friends who live there if they could snap a pic ...might take a while, but hopefully they will do that for me.
ReplyDeleterosemary, hi, carolyn here near tampa, seltzers have 6 restaurants in this area,cows at each, why do you want a photo? carolyn bennett
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn, I believe it was Maggie who asked for a pic, but hey if you can manage to get one , I am sure it would be greatly appreciated.
ReplyDeleteMaggie, Are these the famous cows of Elmhurst Dairy once on Upper Lachine Rd ? http://www.samseltzers.com/01_locations.html http://laiteriesduquebec.com/dairies/mtl-elmhurst.htm Have a nice day ! JM
ReplyDeletedream on. its not that easy, there are many at each sam seltzers, hi, maggie, they are cool cows. carolyn
ReplyDeleteI remember visiting the ice cream place a couple of times and seeing the cows on an advertising billboard. This was a long time ago, so my memory might not be accurate.
ReplyDeleteI sent an email again trying to track down these elusive Cows,..to a Lucie Robilard,.......who has now passed on this email to the Curator of the Museum for Agriculture??? Hi,
ReplyDeleteI have forwarded your email to our Curator. Thank you for your
interest in the Canada Agriculture Museum.

Laughing Cows ?
Hello Lucie,....my name is Les,.and I have been looking for a picture of
the old sign that used to be over the ice-cream parlor ,at the old Elmhurst
Dairy building in Montreal on Upper Lachine Rd ,.or St James St,....it had
two cows sticking out of the sign as if they were 3d,.....very real looking
to us as kids,.... The present dairy took the sign down years ago,with
promises of 'restoring it' and then putting it back.......No such
luck,.they don't seem to want to place back up,..the present day dairy I
believe is called Parmalait ?? Would you,with all your resources happen to
have ,or be able to locate a picture of this famous old sign?
I can Remember it ,from when I was a kid,.....and would like to see the
picture,.again.
Thanks for any help ,you may be able to provide:
(Les ,Victoria BC)
.......both my initial email,.and her brief response appear above,... Who Knows We may just find a picture yet............. HF&RV I wonder if we'll all be Moooved by the sight of it,should we find a picture...................hahahahah
Hi Les ! I appreciate your effort. Were the cows in front of this bldg ? JM
