Gordon Bachlund Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 696 From: Monrovia, CA, USA Registered: Aug 1999 posted 04-26-2003 12:46 PM                        Those of you who follow newspapar comics and have access to a strip called GASOLINE ALLEY, which celebrated its 75th anniversary in 1996, must be moved by the current story line involving the economic problems of the “Octane Theatre.” For todays installment, visit http://www.comicspage.com/gasolinealley/.  |  IP: Logged Gordon Bachlund Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 696 From: Monrovia, CA, USA Registered: Aug 1999 posted 04-30-2003 01:53 PM                        Those who fondly remember changeover booths and carbon arcs will appreciate today's GASOLINE ALLEY strip. Same URL.  |  IP: Logged Bruce McGee Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1776 From: Asheville, NC USA... Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 04-30-2003 03:08 PM                     The artist did a nice job on the booth projectors. Our local paper stopped carrying this strip back in the 1980's I read it from 1964 until then. They dropped Broom Hilda at the same time.  |  IP: Logged Gordon Bachlund Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 696 From: Monrovia, CA, USA Registered: Aug 1999 posted 04-30-2003 05:47 PM                        Bruce, a nice job indeed. The lamphouses strongly resemble Ashcraft Super Core-Lites. "Those were the days."  |  IP: Logged
