Bravo! That’s a beautiful radio your Dad’s arm is on.
My Dad (Bill Owen) gives many public talks on old-time radio.
He was also very involved at the "Old Time Radio Convention" in Newark, NJ, as an actor in many of the the re-enactments of the old shows.
When my brother was very young, he met the voice of The Lone Ranger" at ABC TV in NY...he was so afraid that he just hid in back of my Dad's legs!!!
My Dad also did did many on-camera and voice-over commercials for national television, and portrayed Ellery Queen in the nationally syndicated series “Ellery Queen’s Minute Mysteries”. It ran for many years on radio stations, allowing time for local commercials.
