UPS cop hats, and green wool coats.

I believe cop hats (we called them bus driver caps) and bow ties were discontinued the year before I started. The lockers were full of discarded bow ties. The old guys at that time told me that as soon as they left the building the ties would come off. Can you believe that? Even waaaaaay back then they weren't following the methods

I still have my cop hat and other old items.

How 'bout "The Night Stalker". The real one with Darren McGavin.

This show scared the ever living crap out of me. I was only about 10 but I loved watching it.

The B side of a 45 was obsolete then and it is obsolete now. The B side was usually a throw away song ( in rare instances, the B side became a hit after the fact )

I can remember crowding 2 or 3 classes into a classroom to watch either a mercury or gemini launch.

Anybody remember a TV show called "You asked for it" ?

This topic is really making me feel old!!

I used to love that show! They did a segment at A G Spalding showing how a baseball was made. Spalding was the first ond only producer of Major League baseballs until 1975 when they gave up the contract. My uncle worked there and I had baseballs up the ying yang.

My antenna couldn't pick up Boston stations. I could get that scrambled pay TV signal from Channel 27 in Worcester though.

 

[Big Babooba]

My first TV took a good 5 minutes to warm up before the picture would come on.

Remember when you shut it off? A little dot would appear in the center of the black screen and slowly fade away.
