Chicago TV Class Picture

With Chicago’s WBKB still on my mind from this morning’s post, I thought now was a good time to add this photo of the windy city’s bright start of the small screen from the early days. The names are at the bottom and should be viewable in ‘full screen’ mode.

    Why is there a 1880s prospector standing next to Studs Terkel? Did WBKB need someone to cook the beans, spit tobacco juice, and exclaim “Jumpin’ Jehosaphat!!” whenever something confounding happened?

    Didn’t know Cliff Norton had worked there! He was a favorite of mine when I was a kid.
