Glenn Nall Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) Not sure how many of you are aware of this pretty neat website - https://flashbackdallas.com/ - I came across it a while back somehow, and registered for Paula Bosse's periodic (daily/weekly?) newsletters which turn out to be historically quite interesting, to be sure. It seems Paula works very hard on this project - it's NOT JFK Assassin. related, BUT things pop up, and one never knows when or where "something" might pop up. I found some great history on the TSBD from this website (likely how I came across the Flashback Dallas, in fact...) For example: today's newsletter: The Adolphus by Moonlight https://flashbackdallas.com/2018/01/03/the-adolphus-by-moonlight/ Just thought I'd share this link - as I said, this girl works really hard and produces some terrific old shots (i.e. photos of the local Dallas news crew vehicles from I think 1963 WITH replies from older Dallas residents...) and info from Dallas. Ya'll enjoy (if you haven't already ) glenn Edited January 3, 2018 by Glenn Nall

If you do a search on her page for the 1960's, you can see some stills from a short clip of Jack Ruby combing his hair in front of the Green Department Store in downtown Dallas. https://flashbackdallas.com/category/1960s/ She also talks about ads for Minox cameras on sale for $75.00 as early as 1960. Thanks again. Steve Thomas
Michael Walton Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 An interesting website. I noticed the guy doing kids' TV down there in the 60s called Mr Peppermint. Growing up in the Cincinnati area, they had their own kid show called Uncle Al. I wonder who copied whom? Or was it all one big coincidence? LOL

Kirk Gallaway Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) Ok, some interesting stuff. Almost every city now has a site where they show you old pictures of their history and memorabilia, which is very cool. I guess you live along enough, even Dallas becomes "in". What a typical obnoxious redneck kid interviewing Jimi! (characterizing him as a high school dropout!) Screw you! He was almost saying, I haven't heard you play guitar but Dylan must be a big influence?????? Ok he did 2 songs from Dylan. Were they trying to bait Glenn Campbell to say something lame about the Smother's Brothers? I imagine they were very disappointed later when Glenn Campbell did a version of "Universal Soldier" Edited January 15, 2018 by Kirk Gallaway
