Anyone from Chelsea remember a place called Tony's Spa? Probably would of been around in the 1950's, 60's, 70's? My grandfather and his brothers owned it and I've always wanted to know more about it...thanks!

Melrose Spa is on Mass Ave but it's in Ahhlinton...not Cambridge. Dekka is just another term for a "Pack of", like a dekka cards, I mean cahhds.

I know of Tony's Spa in Chelsea. My mother, her husband and another partner owned it I believe in the 40's. Do you happen to know the address? I have a couple of pictures of it but do not know where it was located.
