Comments left:	The candy was made the Schrafft's Candy Company in Charlestown, MA. My next door neighbor used to work at the factory making candy there. Yes, 10:30 bars were his specialty. I used to get 10:30 bars for free about 3 days a week whenever I passed by the house!!! Thank God I was a very physically active child! Man, they just don't make them like that anymore. "Schrafft's was founded as a candy company by William F. Schrafft in Boston, in 1861. Frank Shattuck took over in 1898, expanding the company to include restaurants. By 1915, they had nine stores in Manhattan, one in Brooklyn, and one in Syracuse, NY as well as the facility in Boston. They had grown to 22 stores in 1923, 42 stores in 1934,[2] and 55 stores in 1968[3]. PET milk purchased Schrafft's in 1967; breaking the ice cream, restaurant, and candy operations into separate companies. The Ice Cream label is the only one which currently survives, having been purchased by the LeSauvage family, owners of several ice cream labels. The New York-New York Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas features a Schrafft's Ice Cream parlor. Currently the building, Schrafft's Center, is owned by the Flatley Company, and now operates as a commercial property."
