IT WAS UNCOVERED IN 2016 (I HAD TO RUN THE FUNNY GOOGLE PHOTO — THIS LOOKS LIKE SPONTANEOUS DANCE MOVES AT THE SIGHTING OF THE GOOGLE TRUCK…) HERE’S MORE ON LOFT’S FROM ITS WIKIPEDIA PAGE: In 1860, English immigrant William Loft opened a candy store in Lower Manhattan. Loft’s two sons followed in his footsteps, with his eldest son George W. Loft taking charge of the company in the 1890s. George Loft soon opened two more stores, then added more in New York City as he moved production out of the family kitchen into a series of increasingly large factories, the latter of which culminated in a location in Long Island City. In the 1940s, the company merged with Pepsi, creating PepsiCo. By 1985, there were only 40 Loft’s Candies stores in the New York area.[citation needed] After renaming itself the Barricini-Loft Co., Inc., in 1988, the company closed all remaining shops and ceased business in 1994.
