I have the complete set up of the Castro Convertible bed that some have spoken of... It is OLD (I do not know how old) and the frame is HEAVY!!! (like they used to make things which is why it has lasted so long!! I am interested in finding out the current, if any, value... To those who asked, yes, it has the two piece mattress and there is 'old' tape covering the springs that attach the mattress to the frame. It came from my wifes Grandmother years ago and I would like to sell to relieve the space it takes up. (I keep it folded up with the mattress in plastic) The mattress is definitely used but not abused. Thanks. Al Zinke - Richmond, VA Good morning!!

I was also present when the Movie, Smokey and the Bandit III was made on their farm in Ocala. I remember Mr. Castro telling me that he was close friends with Rocky Marciano. They were nice folks that always treated me well! I knew Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Castro and was their guest on the Southern trail and their home in Ocala, Fl.

Later I believe that Bernadette's children did the commercials. I was told I was the only non-Castro to star in the commercials.

I don't think it's any older than that though. Still in great shape. I have a castro coffee table from the 60’s.
