1st Printing. By Buffalo Bob Smith and Donna McCrohan. For thirteen years kids across America stayed glued to the TV when it was time for The Howdy Doody Show. That one program reached 98 percent of the country on two hundred stations in more than twenty-five hundred beloved episodes-more than M*A*S*H, I Love Lucy, The Honeymooners, Leave It to Beaver, and All in the Family combined! And the kids who watched it never forgot the Peanut Gallery, Mr. Bluster, Clarabell, Princess Summerfall Winterspring, and, of course, Buffalo Bob and Howdy Doody. But the show was live, not filmed for reruns and until now it has lived only in the memories of millions of Americans. In This affectionate memoir, Buffalo Bob Smith brings it all back with a laugh-out-loud reminiscence of his own life and his wonderful association with the freckle-faced puppet named Howdy Doody. A Pioneer in the TV industry, Buffalo Bob created the show and improvised formats and technology that shaped the future of television programming. Here he takes readers onto the set and shares the real love the very talented people on the show had for each other-and for Howdy and his friends. Howdy and Me is a fitting testament to the unforgettable chapter of television's "Golden Age". Softcover, 7" x 9", 142 pages, text with B&W photos. Cover price $12.95.
