Boy, that Jackie Gleason knew how turn a buck! Due to his foresight, the marketing company that he founded will be in business as long as the demand is there!
Incidentally, he was the first to film shows of his type, with the idea that they could be marketed to areas that didn't receive the CBS signal. I wonder if he envisioned The Honeymooners lasting so long as a popular show?
Thank you, officialfuel!
Hi, racer4four….thank you for the love of these Honeymooners collectibles!
Good evening, Sean….thank you very much…have a fine evening!
@ aghcollect…..thank you very much!
I was invited to meet Jackie at a gold club in S. FL by a friend of his because. "I think you two would get along great!". I didn't go & regretted it ever since. "And away we go!".
Sorry, meant to be golf club.
Yikes, 'buss, I can see why you regretted that decision :(
Thanks for your love of the items!!!!
Yeah Ted, and I had no excuse why I didn't go. Just another bad decision & lost opportunity! He died about 4 yrs later I believe. I've kicked my mental ass many times.
Buss, that is a sad tale!
