Red and Rover by Brian Basset for November 23, 2019

So true! So true!

That’s a really good idea.

Rover is the perfect accessory!

You know, Rover has to get paid in Milky Bones!

Rover is best cushion for Red!!

Bring in some pets from the animal shelter – Adoption fee waived and free cushion-dog or lap-cat with the purchase of every TV. Brilliant!

You bet!!! Happy Saturday, boys

Rover is not looking for employment anytime soon.

There might be some gas or barf problems if the person’s head weighed more than Red’s.

I don think Rover heard him. He seems fast asleep!

Yup, my boy (a Lab, too) and me watching the boob tube together every night.

In the late 50s – early 60s RCA was trying to introduce color TV and having a bad time of it. Color TVs were very expensive compared to B & W sets. A little sales & repair store in Nebraska was leading all RCA retailers in sales, breaking all sales records and soon had a visit from headquarters. The owner had a great plan. Whenever a TV set needed repair, he would bring it into the shop and lend a color model to the owners while he fixed their B & W set. When he was finished with the repairs most of his customers decided to buy the color set on his easy payment terms. TV shows were still made in black & white even into the late 1960s, but now we think it special when a tv episode or film is made in black & white.

Awww….
