Do You Remember ?
This was run awhile back and was kind of fun and we have some new faces that may have something new to add.
Dagwood sandwitch - that thing was about a foot thick and had everything on it. |
Butch Wax for your flat top haircut or during Elvis the "DA".
|
flat tops 'with fenders'?
|
Or PF Flyers?
|
Oh Yeah
Flat tops with Fenders were called Detroits. Do you remember the Andy Devine Show on TV?....well they called it TV!! It WAS close but black and white when it worked. Friday night fights brought to you by Gillette Blue Blades??
|
Yup and greased back sides that met in the back = duck tails = full of Wild Tiger .
|
.." how are ya fixed for blades..." Sure I remember the Friday night fights, Sugar Ray Robinson, Carmen Basilio.....
Remember Andy Devine, too. That scratchy, squeaky voice:D Saw those shows on a TV that had a tiny round screen, a great big cabinet, and the brand name Dumont on it. Not Dupont, Dumont. |
That reminds me....remember when drug and department stores had tube testing machines in them?
|
Andy played the part of Jingles P. Jones. He was Guy Maddison's sidekick on the Wild Bill Hickock show in the early 50's.
We didn't have electricity untill 53 or 54 but we did have a, dry cell battery, radio. One show I remember that went onto TV was Gunsmoke. Mat Dillon was played by William Conrad. Any one remember Chester's full name? |
Should remember Chester's name cause I grew up in Dodge City. But another senior moment.
Do you guys and gals remember when scopes didn't have internal adjustments and had to be adjusted by the mounts and rings. Remeber when TV first came to the area. Spent hours looking at the Test Pattern until they go up and going. Remember one of my first cars, it was a Kaiser Frazier. Ever hear of that. |
Dogyeller:
I think Matt Dillon was played by James Arness. I remember the shows first promo, John Wayne did it, and we all thought he was going to be the star. |
"Burma Shave"
|
Its usually takes a couple of days to remember but I believe that Chester was played by Dennis Weaver.
Remember when you went to a Barber not a Hair Dresser. |
Look familiar Buck.

Yeah, Chester in Gunsmoke was played by Dennis Weaver...
I kinda think there was someone before him, though, but I can't remember who.... IIRC, Burt Reynolds was in Gunsmoke for a year or so, too. :D Burma Shave signs were the entertainment for many childhood car trips. Sorry to see those go.... |
