I thought this originated with WJAC channel 6 of Johnstown, Pennsylvania (originally channel 13), since my parents can attest to seeing this since when they first got a TV. WJAC might have been one of the few stations it was distributed to.

This was produced for television by UPA in 1954, and supervised by the same director responsible for "Gerald McBoing Boing" three years before, Robert Cannon.

This is PRICELESS! I'm sure that anybody who was a kid in the 60s and 70s will agree!

@Tony63909 I sure will! Two of my kids are autistic and people who are gentle and patient mean SO much! You are a true Santa Claus, Tony, and I love to think of all the wonderful memories you're giving lots and lots of kids (and their often-frazzled parents!:)) I'll look you up next time I'm in my home city of Chicago! xxx

@sallythewerewolf I was deeply moved by your post.Kids are the world to me. I love them soooo much. If you ever need a ride on CTA, stop by the Damen/Milwaukee Blue line train station and say hello. GOD BLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Tony63909 Bob Bell ROCKED! I loved how the clowns were real mellow and not frantic..just regular Chicago guys who just happened to be clowns...Bob had a lot of jobs around WGN, as I remember..a real Man For All Seasons! Thank you for sharing your memories and so glad you are there for the kids on the CTA!<3

@ghostlooker. Have a Merry Christmas, brother. Be safe and spend time with those who love you and vice-versa.

@Moviewhiz1 Don't worry about them , you are what is called "PRECOCIOUS". Intelligence way above your natural years! Any one who says gay is immature to use that word in that context. YOU RULE young man! BE KOOL!

@KrisForges Sounds like a kool guy to have known. God bless him.
@4687878 If you ever hear that the old episodes are on the market, please let me know. "Bozos Circus" was also great. You might not remember him because you are younger, but my favorite Bozo was Bob Bell. He was something special with kids. I work for the CTA and love kids. To this day I don't ask them ,"How old are you?". I always ask."How many fingers old are you?" That was the kind of influence Ned Locke,the Ring Master, had on me.
