Been away for a while - missed you all!

I'm the interests of maintaining a positive and cheery vibe, here are some cute puppies that were at the vet last week getting their shots.

Hope you've all been keeping well.

Photograph taken sometime around 1955 based on the Perry Como Show headline shows a time still of city pushcarts and fashionable skirts below the knees in New York City on the corner of Broadway and 62nd Street. The converted Colonial Theater became a place where NBC TV studios in 1953 made a limited number of color recordings. Although these were not broadcast to home TVs in color one experimental transmission was sent via coaxial and microwave to California (Burbank). Apparently at that time each single "colorcast" was subject to Federal Communications Commission broadcast authorization approval. Then in 1954 the first color USA west coast to east coast broadcast by the NBC network was "telecast" being Pasadena, California's Rose Bowl Parade.

Montana street scene presumably in the 1940s during World War 2 based on the picture's absence of young men and a flag at far right . The rural aspect of the country is evident from the first store pictured at left side "Saddlery" whose specialty is horse saddles. The "Range Rider Bar-Cafe" takes it's name from the men who early on patrolled as "Range Riders" the north west Montana region that became Flathead (Lake) National Forest (which long since merged into USA's Glacier National Park). Pabst beer heralded by the bar has a long USA history including being the first brand with 1935 distribution nationwide selling one of their types of beer in a can. (I'm pretty sure several other ASR members as teens like me carried a "church key" to punch open a can of Pabst "Blue Label".) Further along the street is a Philco "Farm and Home Radio" store where town and country folks could buy on installment payment plans and even trade in to upgrade vacuum tube radios which ran on a homestead's 32 Volt battery bank. Although hard to read we can see the stripped pole of a barber shop and other signs advertising featured beer brand. My best guess is this picture was taken in the Montana town of Missoula (not in the closer to Flathead Lake town of Kalispell) somewhere along Front Street being about 100 miles south of Flathead Lake.
