Hey kids, my first memories were of having a radio. My dad even found one that mounted on the handlebars of my tricycle and my favorite thing was to ride around the block listening to the baseball game. The mailman used to coax me to ride with him while he did our block so he could keep up with the score.

When we finally did get a TV (tiny picture, big box, black and white of course), I sat there watching the test pattern until late afternoon when that voice would finally say, "What time is it kids?"

Anybody have a clue as to the answer?

My other memory of the first years of TV was the Friday Night Fights. Look sharp, feel sharp, be sharp. That was the jingle, what was the product?

Yeah, and I actually remember opening packs of those little Bowmans.
