Hey, our gal Sal. And Chief Halftown -- Ee sah sah sussaway, tribal members!! Remember Buckskin Billy and Bertie the Bunyip? Apologies to the non-Philadelphians for the hometown references here. Is there anyplace to watch Crusader Rabbit or King Leonardo these days?I don't remember Buckskin Billy, but I remember the others. Chief Halftown passed away recently (he still had a show on Channel 6 until about 2-3 years ago!). Then there was Pixanne, who was a real babe back in the day. I also remember watching a show called "Pete's Gang", hosted by Pete Boyle, father of actor Peter Boyle. I believe he aired Crusader Rabbit cartoons on his show.

Yeah, Pixanne (Jane Norman). Loved that little woodland outfit. Sorry to hear about Chief Halftown -- a very nice man. Sally Starr is still on the radio on a small station in New Jersey on Sunday afternoons -- she sounds like she's had a few too many gin and tonics, but maybe it's just her age. Remember Larry Ferrari playing the organ on Sundays? And I sure do remember Uncle Pete Boyle and his drawings -- he used to show "Little Rascals" films too. Buckskin Billy was played by a local sportcaster named Bob Bradley. Sawdust Sam used to sit in for Sally on occasion, showing the Three Stooges and Popeye.
