Pintlala Historical Association will meet on Sunday, October 18th, 2026 at 2:30 in the Fellowship Hall of Pintlala Baptist Church. Our program will be presented by Montgomery native, Willie G. Moseley, Senior Writer for Vintage Guitar Magazine and author of eighteen books. His topic for PHA will be his current book, The Golden Age of Normandale. The new shopping venue, Normandale Shopping Center, held its grand opening on September 10, 1954. Where
were you in September, 1954? I was in Miss Kittye McIntyre’s fourth grade class at Pintlala School, likely anticipating a trip to Normandale with my Mom to shop at Loveman’s Department Store and lunch at the Francis Cafeteria (lemon ice box pie, no doubt!). So many memories for me, what are yours?
Come learn the history of Normandale Shopping Center from Willie G. Moseley. Also attending will be David Robertson, childhood friend of Moseley and originator of the idea for the book! His Dad was the very well-known Montgomery photographer, Paul Robertson, who has may photographs reproduced in the book along with those taken by another Montgomery photographer, John Engelhardt Scott.
Please attend and bring a guest or two!!.
