Back In THE BRONX
Founded in 1992, “Back In THE BRONX” began as a humble periodical to keep a handful or readers entertained with stories about growing up in their favorite borough: The Bronx. Since then, the magazine has grown to a subscriber base of over 10,000, and expanded its merchandise line to include DVDs, board games, books, and much, much more! Steve Samtur, Editor-in-Chief of “Back In THE BRONX”, now travels the country entertaining former-Bronxites from California to Florida to New York with his 90-minute Bronx Nostalgia PowerPoint Presentation, “The Bronx: The Way It Was”.

Da Bronx
I have no idea where these are in the Bronx but 1st two are late 40s, the last one is '51
Talk'en Smack
Living in Georgia since 1987 and I been playing on a Senior Softball league for a dozen years now. A great group of guys and a few women from all across the US and have made many good friends and Pals. Most of these fellows are easy going, polite and courteous. Our league is 500 strong with 20 or so New Yorker's, Jersey Boys, etc who out of necessity have curbed our natural born instinct to talk Smack..........They......"The Good Old Boys' get offended easy.
In the works we are planning a pick up game between "The Good Old Boys" vs "The Forgetaboutits" and in this one and only game we the Boys from The Bronx, Brooklyn, Newark, Philly and even Boston get to talk smack like we can, make them cry, for this one and only game............................Oh yea, These GOB are really really good and most likely will beat the Cannoli's out of us.
Did anyone live on Mosholu Pkway in the 30’s & 40’s
Remember Miramar right by the Fordham bridge! I went there every summer till it was torn down. And what about tar beach!
Did you have a favorite secret fence entrance? Mine was behind the handball court that lead to the golf course at Van Cortland Park.

SO SAD THE GROUP PAGE HAS CHANGED WAS SO MUCH FUN!!! I'M AN OLD TIMER. WHAT HAPPENED?
Why am I not getting and post from Back In The Bronx? Why can't I send post to Back in the Bronx? Am I still in the group? If not why not?
😞So sad😔
To see ppl post PROFANITY in some of the comments. Although one may say- "We're all grown-ups, etc." There is really no need for such FILTHY 👺talk. I would like to remain in this Bronx reminiscing group. Let us work together at "keeping it clean."
Plz have some class and respect for others and yourselves. 🤐
PS: Plz DO NOT share any nasty comments. TIP: If you cannot say anything nice, don't say anything at all.
