This is an affectionate look at the history of individually wrapped candy bars, told in short chapters telling the story both chronologically and regionally. There are lots of illustrations of candy bars, wrappers, displays and ads, with an eight-page center section of color advertisements. Written by the man known as "The Candy Man,", Ray Broekel, who appeared on more than 100 TV and radio programs, and once rode in a parade inside a car decorated to look like a chocolate bar. On average, he sampled between 300 and 500 candy bars a year. To research "The Great American Candy Bar Book", he tasted hundreds of candy bars -- and gained 10 pounds in the process. The book is in very good condition. Size: 11" x 8" 0.0. Seller Inventory # 267554
