Early TV Shows

 I have a binder that is full of non sports cards.  I've collected these cards mainly for nostalgia of my 

life.   I probably watch too much tv and this first batch of cards is from my early years.



My 3rd grade teacher was Mrs Gould and her cousin was the trainer for Clayton Moore's

horse, Silver.  We would get almost daily stories of Silver's exploits.  Kimosabe.

1949


Soupy Sales was a Saturday morning kids show. Characters were White Fang and Pookie.

Every week Soupy would get a pie in his face.

1953


Matt Dillon, Chester, Kitty, Doc, and Festus were all favorites.

1955


Zorro on TV starred Guy Williams.

1957



Both Andy Griffith and the Three Stooges debuted in 1960


Jeopardy with Art Fleming as host began in 1964


Ron Ely was Tarzan along with Cheeta

1966

You can reach me at my screen name at Gmail if interested.
