During that difficult time, many have found art-making to be a perfect outlet.

Our good friend Carol Tedesco writes "Hello friends - please share! Back in May, Roberta DePiero approached me about collaborating on a photo-book commemorating the Key West COVID-19 Spring of 2020. She'd noticed that I and a number of other photographers had been out shooting during what is surely one of the most unique and surreal times in our local history - the "COVID-19 Spring," which we defined as running from March 1, when Florida's first COVID-19 cases were announced, to June 1, the day after the upper Keys checkpoint was dismantled. Seeded with a $1000 grant from the Awesome Foundation Key West and additional donations from individuals and business to help cover the printing expense, this soon-to-be released, beautiful, 352 page, numbered/LIMITED EDITION book - produced as a fundraiser for Sister Season Fund - showcases some 350 images of our island home as experienced by more than 25 photographers. Order now at www.keywestauthors.com. Special pre-printing price $49; price as of November 1 will be $74.99.
*Everyone involved in the creation of this book has donated their time and/or talents so that all proceeds can benefit Sister Season Fund and their crucial COVID-19 relief efforts on behalf of those in tourist-rated industries."

UNBELIEVABLE VINTAGE ADVERTISEMENTS
Written by Karen Harris ( A little bit about Karen in the "About the Groovy History Editors" Further Down
You won’t believe what they used to claim in advertisements of the past! From outrageous claims to total falsehoods to blatant sexism and racism, it seems the Mad Men of days gone by could get away with being insensitive, inaccurate, and politically incorrect all in the name of advertising. The chef does everything but cook
|
|
Doctors used to promote cigarettes back then.
Before reports linked smoking to all sorts of nasty diseases, like cancer and heart disease, cigarette companies used real doctors to promote the health benefits of smoking. They claimed that smoking helped to reduce stress and curb appetite, which may be true. But we now know that the risks far out-weigh the benefits. And by using doctors in their ads, the marketing companies were relying on the public's faith in the medical profession and belief that doctors were the smartest people around. Doctors are pretty smart...smart enough to make money on the side by being a cigarette spokesperson.
|
|
Dupont cellophane advertisement
A baby in a plastic bag! This ad leaves us gasping for air, but it is trying to show that cellophane, or plastic wrap, is a clean and sterile alternative to the homemade packaging people once used. And that using cellophane helps to keep the contents fresh. Prior to plastic wrap, people would cover their food with a cloth that was not air-tight or water-tight and could harbor bacteria and mold. When plastic products were first introduced, advertisers were quick to point out the cleanliness of the plastic. But, still, one should never, ever, ever put a baby in a plastic bag.
...

|
Heroin used to be prescribed for cough relief.
Nothing quiets a cough like heroin! At least that's what this old ad claims. It is even from Bayer, a trusted pharmaceutical company that has been in business for a long time. Heroin has a long history of medicinal uses, but it is also highly addictive and dangerous when not used properly. This is why, in 1924, heroin joined a list of other drugs to be banned in the United States. That, of course, didn't stop people from using the drug illegally. We are still fighting the battle against heroin addiction today.
|
|
Jockey underwear advertisement.
When this ad came out, no one thought twice about the image of a little boy with a gun. But today, most people would blow a gasket to see a mainstream media ad showing a child so casually handling a firearm. Guns, once a staple in every home, are now such a hot-button issue that many people are proposing that we get rid of all of the guns in the country. Of course, the issue is a complex one and the various sides will never totally agree with each other. What they all can agree on, however, is that small children, like this underwear-clad boy, should not have access to weapons until they are much older and much more responsible.
|
|
Marlboro cigarettes advertisement.
Everyone smoked in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. Smoking was so common-place and so much a part of family life, that is was not uncommon for children to be used in ads to promote the smoking habits of their parents. In fact, most smokers smoked around their children...in the home and in the car. The term 'second-hand smoke' wasn't introduced until much later when doctors started reporting that they could see the effects of smoking on non-smokers, even children. Only then was research done the dangers of second-hand smoke.

New mod pottery!
Mark has been creating many new items with fun mid-century modern glaze designs. We've given these new designs the name Mod, which joins our Fleming, Duval, Mallory, and Key West lines. Mark's mod pottery is distinguished by colorful designs and patterns that are reminiscent of the 1960's. The pieces are made of durable stoneware, and they are safe in the microwave and dishwasher.
Mark started working on mod pieces because he loves patterns and he wanted to offer something in addition to his more organic, rustic ceramics. While the technique for applying the patterns is very time-intensive, the pandemic has offered him the opportunity to slow down and take time to explore this creative avenue.
We hope that you can check out the new pieces at our gallery or online! Mark is making new unique pieces every day.

WE NOW CONTINUE Roberta DePiero's Journeys around KW & Stock Island to Photograph ALL THE GREAT SITES. Here are the Captions / Descriptions of Images that Roberta writes with the inclusion of her Photos on Facebook
The water in the harbor was so blue....
A one-legged chicken.
A giant Mario Sanchez carving on the wall at El Meson de Pepe.
El Meson de Pepe decorations...
Who knew this tidbit? I couldn't get a better shot without totally leaning over the people at the table under it!
Not sure who these handsome boxers are.. I do see the name Pete Nebo on one... No clue who he is tho.
And this is not a true Florida History Marker. We found this in front of Building 21.
These are cheater orchids.... we discovered that the pots are attached to the trees hidden behind the palm hair. Then they just keep changing out the orchids. But they are still beautiful.

Mentos ad created in 1948 - Einstein died in 1955.
This ad claims that Albert Einstein, the famed scientist, was endorsing Mentos. The fact is that Einstein never endorsed any products and actually hated the practice of celebrity endorsements. He called them the “corruption of our time”. Einstein was regularly offered large sums of money to promote products, but he turned down every one. Yet that didn’t stop this ad, and many others, from using his image. During the 1940s, licensing laws were lax or unclear, allowing for companies to use a person’s image without having to get their permission and without having to pay them. Fortunately, those laws are much clearer now.

Santa smoking Lucky Strike cigarettes.
Since everyone was smoking in the 30s and 40s, I suppose it is only natural to assume that Santa Claus was as well. Good ol’ St. Nick is often featured in advertisements. Even today, we see the jolly ol’ elf promoting soft drinks, GPS units, fast food, and more. But, today, we don’t expect to see St. Nick with a cigarette in his hand. One positive we see…the smoke won’t make Santa’s red suit smell like a chimney. It probably already reeks of smoke from all of the chimney climbing he does on Christmas Eve!
|
|
Don't Shoot!.
Suicide is nothing to joke about, yet this ad is making light of it by implying that a girl may be tempted to commit suicide if she has nothing new to wear. This ad is insensitive, but there may be a ring of truth to it. Teens who are bullied are more likely to consider suicide as a solution to their bullying problem. Often, teens are bullied because of the clothes they wear…because they don’t have the latest styles or because their style doesn’t fit in with the rest of the students. So we can see an indirect link between clothing and suicide in this ad…but it is still insensitive and in poor taste.

A girl-sized hand needs a girl-sized pen.
I am sure that the CEOs of Parker Pens thought they were creating a product that solved a problem when this introduced their new girl-sized pens, but in fact, they were feeding into the belief that females were smaller and weaker and not capable of competing in a man’s world. The smaller pens that were supposed to be designed to fit a woman’s smaller hand did not help to promote gender equality. If anything, it tried to show that women could not keep pace with men unless they had special accommodations made for them, like diminutive office supplies.

|
Captain Morgan Ad.
Do that today and you'll probably get slapped. That's because today, we think of the word 'ho' as being short for whore. When this ad came out, however, the word was not viewed that way. Captain Morgan's was using an old pirate phrase, 'yo ho ho', to illustrate the swashbuckling legend of Captain Morgan. The 17th century Caribbean pirate, Captain Henry Morgan, for which the rum is named, probably used the phrase yo ho ho when he was hauling rope or scrubbing the deck or any other tedious job. The phrase was meant to help the sailors keep pace

Good things are twice as good in cellophane.
There’s a reason why there are warning labels on plastic bags saying not to put small children inside the bags. It is because people actually did what ads like this suggested and put their infants in air tight plastic bags. Really! The ad copy promotes the sanitary qualities of the cellophane, noting that it provides a great protection from dirt and bacteria. Unknowing parents, wanting to protect their children, did what they were told to do…seal their kids up in plastic. The public had to learn the hard way that plastic is air tight.

Coca-Cola used to claim that they can cure headaches.
Coca-Cola was once marketed as a headache remedy. If we remember that the original formula for Coke contained cocaine, then we could possibly believe this claim. Coke also contains caffeine, and if you have ever tried to kick a caffeine addiction, you know that there are days of headaches in store for you as the caffeine leave your system. The best relief for a caffeine withdrawal headache is nice, big glass of ice-cold Coca-Cola.

About South Florida Symphony Orchestra
South Florida Symphony Orchestra, founded by Maestra Sebrina María Alfonso 23 years ago, provides exciting and enriching cultural experiences through Masterworks concerts with internationally renowned guest solists in Fort Lauderdale, Miami and Key West. Guided by the belief that music is pivotal to community engagement, SFSO also brings vibrancy and strengthens public commitment to the arts through its transformative outreach and educational programming, including Symphony in the Schools for culturally underserved students.
After impressive career successes, Maestra Alfonso returned “home” to Key West, Florida, in 1997 to make a dream come true: bringing orchestral music, with all its associated educational and cultural benefits, to the southernmost island in the continental United States. In late 1998, with huge community support, the Key West Symphony made its debut. Subsequently renamed, the South Florida Symphony Orchestra (SFSO) is the only professional orchestra that performs full seasons in Key West, Fort Lauderdale and Miami.
Award-winning Maestra Alfonso has established herself as a dynamic musical force. She is one of the few female conductors in the world. Her creativity has established SFSO as a leader in innovative collaborations, which are evolving the classical music art form and attracting new audiences.

HERE IS A LIST OF THEIR CO-FOUNDERS AND WRITERS
One of the Popular Groovy History Editors Lyra Radford
Lyra spends her days exploring all shades of history. In her writing, she covers topics ranging from the 'groovy' to the downright strange. She enjoys books, movies, and strong coffee. She also fancies herself the world's greatest air hockey player. She learned the ins and outs of writing and producing film/television at Palm Beach State and The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. She is currently enrolled at Arizona State University studying psychology and writing. Her work has been featured by some of the most prolific sites on the web and she is the author of the travel guide "Two-Days Exploring Haunted Key West".
ONE OF THE POPULAR GROOVY HISTORY EDITORS JACOB SHELTON
Jacob Shelton is a Los Angeles based writer. For some reason this was the most difficult thing he’s written all day, and here’s the kicker – his girlfriend wrote the funny part of that last sentence. As for the rest of the bio? That’s pure Jacob, baby. He’s obsessed with the ways in which singular, transgressive acts have shaped the broader strokes of history, and he believes in alternate dimensions, which means that he’s great at a dinner party. When he’s not writing about culture, pop or otherwise, he’s adding to his found photograph collection and eavesdropping on strangers in public.
Rebeka Knott (3rd Photo Down) is another one of their Frquent Writers
Writer of this Feature and many other GROOVY HISTORY Features
Rebeka grew up in the 1960’s & 1970’s and has always subscribed to the theory that a positive attitude will take you far! She is a wife and mother of 3 with a fun-loving spirit, believing that family and relationships are invaluable.
Karen Harris (4th Photo Down) is Another Frequent Writer /Editor and her work can be seen in this issue with "UNBELIEVABLE VINTAGE ADVERTISEMENTS"
Karen left the world of academic, quitting her job as a college professor to write full-time. She spends her days with her firefighter husband and four daughters on a hobby farm with an assortment of animals, including a goat named Atticus, a turkey named Gravy, and a chicken named Chickaletta.

MONROE COUNTY FIRE RESCUE AND SPARKY THE FIRE DOG REMIND CHILDREN TO ‘SERVE UP FIRE SAFETY IN THE KITCHEN’
MONROE COUNTY, FL – Monroe County Fire Rescue is teaming up with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) — the official sponsor of Fire Prevention Week for more than 90 years — to promote this year’s Fire Prevention Week campaign, “Serve Up Fire Safety in the Kitchen!” The campaign works to educate everyone about simple but important actions they can take to keep themselves and those around them safe.
Monroe County Fire Rescue will be doing outreach programs for Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 4-10, in Monroe County schools and daycares. The Monroe County Fire Marshal and crews will visit seven schools to help students and children practice how to cook safely in the kitchen, as well as have a meet and greet with Sparky the Fire Dog, and a fire truck tour.
“Children need to know how quickly a fire can grow in the kitchen,” Monroe County Fire Marshal RL Colina said. “I have seen many homes damaged and people injured by fires that could easily have been prevented.”
According to NFPA, cooking is the leading cause of home fires and home fire injuries in the United States. Almost half of reported home fires started in the kitchen and two-thirds of home cooking fires start with the ignition of food or other cooking materials.
Safety tips for preventing a cooking fire:
Never leave cooking food unattended. Stay in the kitchen while you are frying, grilling or broiling. If you have to leave, even for a short time, turn off the stove.
If you are simmering, baking, roasting, or boiling food, check it regularly, remain in the home while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you to check your food.
Stay alert while cooking. Avoid cooking when you are sleepy, have taken medicine or drugs, or consumed alcohol.
Always keep an oven mitt and pan lid nearby when you’re cooking. If a small grease fire starts, slide the lid over the pan to smother the flame. Turn off the burner, and leave the pan covered until it is completely cool.
Have a “kid-free zone” of at least 3 feet around the stove and areas where hot food or drink is prepared or carried.
Make sure pots and pans have handles pushed over where little hands can’t reach up and pull them off, or where it can accidently be knocked off the stove.
Smoke Alarms
Install smoke alarms in every sleeping room, outside each separate sleeping area, and on every level of the home.
Test smoke alarms at least once a month using the test button. Change batteries twice a year when the clock “falls back” and “springs ahead.”
Make sure everyone in the home understands the sound of the smoke alarm and knows how to respond. Have a plan on where to meet outside of the home in case of an emergency.
For more general information about Fire Prevention Week and cooking fire prevention, visit www.fpw.org.

Calling it “an act of executive grace,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ latest order removed fines and penalties levied against those who violated mask ordinances or social distancing guidelines during the coronavirus pandemic.
The order took effect immediately as the governor announced phase 3 of the state’s reopening during a Sept. 25 press conference alongside members of the restaurant industry in St. Petersburg. While the order eliminates the collection of fines for COVID-19-related violations, it didn’t address eliminating the various measures local municipalities enacted, such as the mandatory mask-wearing upon entering businesses and restaurants in Monroe County.
Monroe County’s facial covering ordinance is still in effect and can be enforced against businesses that do not follow Monroe County ordinance 026-2020. There will be no citations against individuals, but code compliance can still cite businesses that are not requiring facial coverings inside the business, said Kristen Livengood, county public information officer.
Signs along U.S. 1 still contain messages of the mask requirement as motorists enter the Keys. And signs remain on business doors to wear a mask upon entry. Those eating at restaurants also must wear a mask until seated.
As for the executive order, DeSantis said it’s time to end penalties against people for social distancing and start working constructively with them.
“Some actually have jail sentences attached. I don’t know if that’s actually been done,” DeSantis said. “All these fines we’re going to hold in abeyance and hope we can move forward in a way that’s more collaborative,” he said.
Bob Eadie, health officer for Monroe County, said individuals need to take responsibility for their own health. Wearing masks is one of the most important measures to help prevent the spread based on guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Eadie said.
“Going forward with where we are, I think everybody should heed that advice,” he said. “The governor was very clear that the pandemic has not gone away. There’s still infections in Florida, but it’s gone down a great deal,” Eadie said.
The Florida Department of Health reported 3,259 new cases and a positivity rate 5.01% as of Sept. 28. In the Keys, the local health department reported eight new cases and three hospitalizations, three at Lower Keys Medical Center and one at Mariners and Fishermen’s hospitals, as of Sept. 29.
With DeSantis’ phase 3 reopening came a flood of calls to the Key Largo Chamber of Commerce from people traveling to the Keys, said president Elizabeth Moscynski.
“There were a lot of people saying ‘we’re not going to come’ and ‘we’re not going to do this.’ One conversation was 45 minutes with someone and another conversation was a half-hour with someone,” she said.
Moscynski said if people are taking precautions, wearing masks and washing hands, “then you’ll be fine.”
DeSantis’ executive order also gave restaurants the ability to operate at a minimum capacity of 50%, regardless of local rules. That means restaurants can go back to full capacity if they choose.
If local municipalities restrict restaurant capacities further than 50%, DeSantis said they must provide justification and costs involved with those actions.
“I think this will be important to the industry in recognition that they have worked as hard as anybody to create safe environments,” DeSantis said. “The idea that government dictating this is better than them (restaurants) making these decisions so customers have confidence, I think, is misplaced.”
Florida remained under a phase 2 reopening since the beginning of June. Some 16 weeks later, DeSantis said everybody has to have an opportunity to work and business to operate. While local governments can enact what DeSantis called “reasonable regulations,” he said, “you can’t just say ‘no’ after six months and have people twisting in the wind.”
In the Keys, restaurants and bars have been able to operate at 50% indoor capacity. Outdoor seating isn’t limited, as long as tables are 6 feet apart.
“Some businesses still prefer to have social distancing. It all depends on where their comfort zone is,” Islamorada Chamber of Commerce executive director Judy Hall said. “I’ve heard from a few restaurants that aren’t ready to put more tables in to go to 100%.”
Simone Mullis operates both Dockside Bar and Grill and Marathon Grill and Ale House, two popular eateries in Marathon. The Ale House has been closed since March, and reopened last week. The restaurants’ social distancing and mask requirements have not changed.
“At the Ale House we are going to operate at 50% capacity. I bought some big plants to put on tables that we won’t use, and added some tables on the sidewalk,” she said of the restaurant located in Gulfside Village.
Dockside Bar and Grill is an open-air restaurant and bar located right on Boot Key Harbor. The outside music venue gives people an added measure of confidence, Mullis said.
“People even dance in their mask,” she said, laughing. Mullis said she has had some pushback from people who don’t like masks, but she keeps the conversations upbeat. “I tell them I love wearing my mask and ‘We gotta do what we gotta do.’”
Marathon Chamber of Commerce CEO Daniel Samess said food and beverage members are “elated they can begin to operate at a capacity they feel comfortable with.”
“They can serve more patrons and maybe make up for some lost revenue,” Samess said. “Most Marathon businesses are optimistic while still wary of another spike or small spike in coronavirus cases.”
County commissioners voted on Sept. 2 to allow restaurants to resume their normal hours of operation and allow a COVID-related 11 p.m. curfew to lapse. The curfew had forced restaurants to close, as well as retail alcohol sales at stores, to end at midnight.
Not all counties have proceeded to phase 3 yet. In South Florida, Miami-Dade and Broward counties just recently entered phase 2.
HERE IS ANOTHER THE WEEKLY ARTICLE DONE BY KEY WEST NEWS EDITOR MANDY MILES FOR THEIR DAILY ON-LINE E-MAIL PUBLISHING CAMPAIGN :
KEY WEST IS IN A STATE OF MASK CONFUSION BY THE WEEKLY KEY WEST NEWS EDITOR MANDY MILES OCT. 1
Calling it “an act of executive grace,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ latest order removed fines and penalties levied against individuals who violated mask ordinances or social distancing guidelines during the coronavirus pandemic.
The order took effect immediately as the governor announced phase 3 of the state’s reopening on Sept. 25.
While the order eliminates the collection of fines for COVID-19-related violations, it didn’t address the elimination or continuation of measures local municipalities have enacted, such as the mandatory mask-wearing upon entering businesses and restaurants in Monroe County and Key West.
Monroe County’s facial covering ordinance is still in effect and can be enforced against businesses that do not follow Monroe County ordinance 026-2020. There will be no citations against individuals, but code compliance can still cite businesses that are not requiring facial coverings inside the business, said Kristen Livengood, county public information officer.
Key West Mayor Teri Johnston told the Keys Weekly that she interprets the governor’s order the same way as Monroe County officials.
“It’ll be up to the individual businesses, but they are in violation of our city’s emergency orders if they don’t require masks,” Johnston said.
Johnston asked Keys Weekly to “double check with the city’s legal department about whether Key West businesses must still require masks.”
When Keys Weekly posed that question to the city’s legal department, City Attorney Shawn Smith and assistant city attorney Nathalia Mellies replied, “We give our advice to the City Commission.”
Johnston acknowledged on Sept. 30 that the governor’s Sept. 25 announcement has led to significant confusion among business owners, residents and even officials.
“From my perspective, I think the only thing that has changed is that individuals on the street won’t be fined or cited for not wearing a mask,” Johnston said. “But we’ve really issued very few fines, and have been giving more warnings than anything else. There’s so much confusion out there and people are writing and posting things online without conferring with any officials.”
The Key West Chamber of Commerce acknowledged the same confusion, writing to its members, “The Chamber has been following the posted judgements of Governor DeSantis’ executive order, and we recognize there are conflicting interpretations between the county and city. At this time, our guidance is, on masks: Err on the side of caution. On social distancing inside an establishment: Per the governor, businesses are permitted to run at 100% capacity. If they want to adhere to social distancing, that is an individual business’s decision.”
The one bright spot amid the confusion, the mayor added, is that so many Key West businesses want to continue to provide a safe environment for their staff and customers and thus are still requiring masks upon entry.
“In fact, a local Facebook group called 5 Star Safety Reviews lists various local businesses that continue to adhere to the mask requirements to let people know safety is their top concern,” Johnston said. Signs along U.S. 1 throughout the Florida Keys still contain messages of the mask requirement as motorists enter the Keys. And signs remain on business doors to wear a mask upon entry. Those eating at restaurants also must wear a mask until seated.
As for the executive order, DeSantis said it’s time to end penalties against people for social distancing and start working constructively with them.
“All these fines we’re going to hold in abeyance and hope we can move forward in a way that’s more collaborative,” he said.
Bob Eadie, health officer for Monroe County, said individuals need to take responsibility for their own health. Wearing masks is one of the most important measures to help prevent the spread based on guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Eadie said.
“Going forward with where we are, I think everybody should heed that advice,” he said. “The governor was very clear that the pandemic has not gone away. There’s still infections in Florida, but it’s gone down a great deal.”

Dengue can present as a severe flu-like illness with severe muscle aches and pain, fever and sometimes a rash. Usually, there are no respiratory symptoms. Symptoms of Dengue will appear within 14 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. Dengue fever is not contagious but is transmitted by the bite of an infected Aedes aegypti mosquito.
The emergence of these Dengue cases reinforces the importance for the public to prevent insect bites and to take basic precautions to help limit exposure. These measures include intact windows and screens and the use of air conditioning, keeping the area around your residence free from containers that collect water, wearing protective clothing and the appropriate use of insect repellents.
are experiencing any symptoms or have additional questions, please call DOH-Monroe at
305-293-7500 and choose option 3. The last few Issues had a Larger Feature on Dengue Fever go to the August 10th Issue to see : https://conta.cc/3a8EN0o
