The first bumper has a still of Archie (O'Connor) and Edith (Jean Stapleton), and the second has a still of Archie and Edith with Mike (Rob Reiner) and Gloria (Sally Struthers); both stills date to the mid-1970'...

Views: 1460

Here's an editorial by Dillon Smith, from early in his run as Editorial Director of WMAQ Channel 5 regarding the curious Chicago practice of not selling fresh meat after 6pm, nor selling any on Sundays.

From time to time, Mr. Smith would deliver his editorials in locations pertinent to its content and focus - even at this early date, from a local supermarket after 6pm when fresh meat was made empty at store shelves, due to a contract between the supermarkets and the butchers' u...
