Welcome To An Eyes Of A Generation EXCLUSIVE!

Starting now, we will all be privy to some very interesting facts, details and even a few secrets about ‘The Ed Sullivan Show’, that before now, were never available. Thanks to Dee Wexler, we are going to be able to explore the extraordinary photos and papers left behind by her famous grandfather…Eddie Brinkmann. As Ed Sullivan’s stage manager, Eddie was Sullivan’s right hand man from start till finish. They spent 23 years and 1,054 episodes together creating history on one of televisions most enduring and revered programs. That I know of, no one other than Eddie Brinkmann was there for the entire run of the show. Others came and went, but not Eddie. True, Sullivan did fire him numerous times, but always asked him to come back and among other things, we will see some of those “kiss and make up” letters. There are a lot of interesting things to come, including lots of Sullivan show schedule sheets, never before seen photos and more. I have sent some of the photos to former Sullivan staffers for help on putting names with faces and as we go, I’ll depend on your help too. Please share these posts so that your friends will not miss out.
