Looks like the beginning of something wonderful.

Just for the Record - Jack Scott

I have another 45 rpm by him called "Leroy" but I don't have the record sleeve/jacket. The lyrics on Leroy tell us that: Leroy's back in jail again. I that think Jack Scott was from the Detroit Michigan area. He has a greatest hits CD. And Jack Scott is great, but on the radio, I only remember hearing the Leroy song and one other tune titled What In The World's Come Over You.

Great Anomalies

Lionel, Lion-Man
Lionel was born in Poland, in 1890, as Stephan Bibrowski. Every part of his body was covered with hair except the bottoms of his feet and the palms of his hands. Lionel came to the U.S. about 1902 under contract with P.T. Barnum. He was a huge success earning a reported $500.00 a week. Lionel never appeared on a public street. He was an avid reader and learned to speak seven languages. Lionel went on several world tours. Lionel died in Italy in 1932. This photo was taken in 1907.

Great Animals

Olney, Illinois is famous for its white squirrels. The White Squirrel appeared here in the 1900's. They are Onley's proudest boast and the town trademark.
It's worth the trip to see these Great Animals.

Invasion Of The Saucer Men - Big Screen Thrills

This is a cow?
That question almost makes sense once you've seen the film.
