l've read this musty, old book, too. Found it in the Stratford-on-Schuylkill library, back in the 90s (1590s)

l don't think they came on at 4 pm, like they do now, but the programming schedule at WPVI, from 5 pm on, hasn't changed in the thirty-five years since that picture was taken: Action News at 5, Action News, ABC News, Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, then whatever crap ABC fed the masses at 8. They had those three hours locked up. Compare that to KWY and WCAU

Pretty cool people that run that place. You're right, those things are not toys. Not sure if they're still up, but there were some youtube videos of guys using their products out in the desert "somewhere"

Using this pic for reference... 1975. Second Flyers parade. Cut school. Got to JFK. Mobbed. Got a seat in bottom right of the U. Two guys in front of us were absolutely wasted. Barely hanging on. One guy says to the other, "Oh, man. l am %$#@ed up. l'm seeing elephants." Other guy says, "Holy $#%^! So, am l!"
They were seeing elephants. l was, too. The circus had just arrived at the Spectrum. They were walking the elephants across the parking lot (left side of Spectrum) into the building. We could see it from our seats. That was a fun day. l saw lots of cool things in those old stadiums
