Christmastown? Brockton??? Is this supposed to be humor?
History?
Nostalgia?
Trivia?
Marketing 101?
When I was a child in the 60s, Edgar’s spirit was still strong in the area. His store was still open and remained a large celebrator of Christmas. Over the past 50 years Brockton slid down from a beautiful countrified city to divided havens of immigrants, drugs and crime, developing a bad reputation that’s bigger than is real. Home of Rocky Marciano, they only recently received a smallish statue of him hoping to promote the town that way yet I don’t know if they’ve decided on a location as it’s been problem, too. Good Luck, Brockton, and have a wonderful new year.
