Around 1957 or 8. There I met Clarabell the Clown who was Bob Keeshan. But he didn't talk not even when the camera was not going. In front of the kids in the Peanut Gallery. Would have freaked us all out I guess! I also met Chief Thunderthud and who ever else was walking around. Having just written this I read that Clarebell was taken over by another guy Lew Anderson in 1952. Apparently most of these guys were jazz musicians. Where they beatniks as well? To me a jazz musician in the early 50s would have to be but I'm more up on the whole hippy thing that's when I came in. Daddy O. dig it! Groovy!
