18. That boring looking dart board (we only had a b/w TV)

And "Gunsmoke" on the radio show.

We didn't own a TV until '62 (I was 11) - and the only reason we got one was because my aunt died, and we were the only ones in the family without a tv.

AND - we were only allowed to watch ONE show per week at first -

that's right yunguns -

1 show per WEEK-

OK now a question for my fellow old farts, or anyone, really

What show was it???

1962 it was . . .
