I woke up this morning to the news that Walter Cronkite died last night. There are two ads on the CBS page with Mr. Cronkite including this one. Also, check out the page from the July 19-25 issue of TV Guide which detailed TV coverage of the Apollo 11 moon landing (40 years ago) on the News/ Special Reports page. There are 19 more new additions today from February-April 1985. Also on the News/ Special Reports page are two channel 11 ads for a report on Weathering the Weather with Charlie Umpenhour, Jim Proctor and Amy Marsalis and a Jeff Heitz report on Vietnam Remembered: Battles Still to Fight. There's also a WTVG ad for a series of reports by Jerry Anderson in Japan comparing the lives of auto workers in Japan and the U.S. There's another ad on the channel 11 news page for your FIRST choice for News...Toledo 11. There's also another ad for Jane Aldrich on the channel 24 news page. You'll find another eight ads on the WTOL page for Wheel of Fortune and Family Feud, In Good Health, MAC Preview '85 with Orris Tabner and Dan Cummins, WKRP in Cincinnati and Three's Company, Friday night episodes of Star Trek, a syndicated special Dropout, The Making of Space and one for the Toledo Eleven Kids' Health Fair. There are more ads on the ABC page, one with a young Alyssa Milano on Who's the Boss? and two for the premiere of Moonlighting with Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd. On the NBC page is and ad with Stepfanie Kramer and Fred Dryer on Hunter and on the Other Vintage Ads page is an ad for Ma Baker's downtown Toledo cafe. More 1985 May Sweeps ads to come...
