In my collection I have an original Honest Charlie decal and a parts order
blank for his speed equipment. No I won't sell them.

> Back then ('54?) , WCKY was one of the first mega watt stations in the
country. They claimed they could be heard from coast to coast, I don't know
about that, but I picked it up fine after dark in Massachusetts.  The NY
station that carried the Alan Freed show would fade out a lot, but not Big
John R.  Also, Big John R refused to call it Rock and Roll, ro even Rock.
He called it "Movin and Groovin" music.
