September 1955

And so begins a crazy experiment in what would eventually
be rechristened "public broadcasting"!



Just how many people in Birmingham had
color sets in 1955, anyway?


Which featured an obscure hit by Bill Haley,
called "Rock Around the Clock."







By this point, no doubt many parents were feeling like the whole Davy Crockett craze was full of Shinola.




That's a nice way to "jazz" up a fleet.
