Mornin' Bill,, I never realized just how long Bob Top worked on and for the Beatty show...
About 15 years ago I bought my first Lincoln Town car..It was mint and loaded with ad-on options..Turns out it was one of Jerry collins. Seems that the Dealer in W.palm didn't keep trade ins on their lot and would send them to dealers up here in the Tampa area..Funny how threads cross our lives.. I also had the pleasure of driving Kim Sue for her wedding in it! Lee.......
The last time I saw Mr. Frank McClosky was during the time I was employed by Bill English in 1967 on the Sell's & Gray show. A black limo pulled on the lot and out of it a group of folk emerged that look like a scene out of the move men in black,soon I was summoned to the office and was offered the following season on the Beatty show however I was already booked I sure would liked to have gone over there back then.
