January 2, 2014: 13 Weatherschool

 

You'll find fifteen more ads today, all from November 1990, plus one Random Pages gallery addition, a Friday, 11/2/90 front page Blade story by Gary T. Pakluski, "Radio 'Rain Man' Spoof Not Funny, Say Local Advocates for Disabled," about Jeff Lamb on WIOT-FM. There are two additions to the Channel 11 gallery, including a Saturday, 11/3/90 ad for Life Choices with Erie Chapman (Danny Glover) and a Monday, 11/12/90 ad for CBS prime time shows, Uncle Buck, "Tia's Tutor," Major Dad, "Wish You Were Here," Murphy Brown, "The Last Laugh," Designing Women, "Nowhere to Run To," and The Honeymooners Anniversary Special (Jackie Gleason, Audrey Meadows, Art Carney). There's one addition to the Channel 13 News gallery, a Thursday, 11/1/90 ad for 13 Weatherschool (Stan Stachak, Dave Hennen). There's also one addition to the News/Special Reports Ads gallery, a Monday, 11/19/90 ad for a Larry Whatley three-part 13 News report, "No Holds Barred." You'll find one addition to the the Channel 24 gallery as well, a Monday, 11/11/90 ad for Hard Copy, 24 NewsWatch, and A Current Affair. There's also one addition to the PBS gallery, a Monday, 11/5/90 ad for three pre-election programs on Channel 30, WGTE Election Eve Primer, Gubenatorial Profiles, and Ohio's Next Governor. And there's one addition to the the Channel 36 gallery, a Wednesday, 11/21/90 ad for the movie, "Overboard" (Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell). There are three additions to the ToledoVision 5 gallery, two for movies on The Big Show, a Saturday, 11/9/90 ad for "Finian's Rainbow" and a Monday, 11/12/90 ad for "Sharky's Machine" (Burt Reynolds). There's also a Monday, 11/19/90 ad for TaleSpin. There's one addition to the Radio Station Ads gallery, a Friday, 11/23/90 ad for a Notre Dame vs. USC football game on WCWA-AM 1230. There are four additions to the Other Vintage ads gallery, the first one being a Saturday, 11/3/90 ad, the one mentioned in the 11/2/90 story above (We believe the WIOT FM 104 campaign to write in Rainman for Governor makes a mockery...). Next is another 11/3/90 ad, to name the new Toledo ECHL hockey team, which would of course, end up being named the Toledo Storm. There are also two full-page ads, a Monday, 11/5/90 ad for Food Town, introducing "Shoppers Express," and a Wednesday, 11/14/90 ad for Matthews Ford, congratulating the Maummee Stamping Plant on their 15th anniversary. December 1990 and January 1991 ads, from the online archives of The Toledo Blade are on the way...
