    How many remember the name of their telephone operator back in the time of party lines? I do remember Minnie Larson.

    As long as we are on Captain Kangaroo and the Flintstones Does anyone remember:
    Do bees Don't bees and also the Magic Mirror. Romper Bomper Stomper Voo….
    1966 Romper Room Wor - Bing video

    We also had. "You can fool some of the people some of the time. All the people all the time, but you can't fool dear old Mom." Captain Penny. I believe it was a local produced show for the Cleveland viewing audience.

    Geeze, I don't remember those, but then, I don't think we even had a tv then. We had been married only a very few years so did other things for entertainment.

    Does anyone remember the Gabby Hayes show? I can remember going to a neighbor's to watch it as we did not have a tv. If I remember right it came on right after Hopalong Cassidy and Gene Autry.
