Notes on Page Four:
- WNAM with a nice ad in the program.
- Where do sportsmen meet?!?! The Owl Tavern, of course.
- Yankee Stadium dimensions were goofy.
- I have been trying to find information on Mayor Bell. No luck
Notes on Page Five:
- In the picture of the directors of Appleton Baseball, I count 10 regular ties, 2 no ties, and 1 bow tie.
- Typewriter shop? How quaint.
- About the Wettengel's Bar ad at the bottom: Was there a rash of non-regulation pool tables in Appleton during the 50's?
- Wettengel's Bar is now Jack's Apple Pub.
- The lower right hand corner may be the finest clip art use of an umpire ever
Notes on Page Six:
- Below: Jack McKeon without mustache. Link: Jack McKeon with mustache.
- Heid Music is still in the same place.
- K-C Modern Bar with All Sports Events on Radio & TV. If I had a time machine, I would like to go back and see a 1959 Sports Bar. Then, I'd order some buffalo wings, some southwest egg rolls, and a beer other than Schlitz or Pabst Blue Ribbon...and be chased out of the place.
- Maybe I should stop at Uncle Jim's Bar to see what the place looks like today, because that is the business at 317 N. Appleton in Appleton.
- After swinging by Jack's Apple Pub, I can see the State Street Diner. State Street Diner is the former King Bee Lunch. King Bee? Do they have those?
I will continue the look through the 1959 Program this week in a special edition of The Interrogation Room and on Flashback Friday.
