That's absolutely lovely, Deb. I'm sure that “June,” if she's still among us, would get a big kick out of hearing that. George, too, would enjoy knowing that his creative merchandising actually had an impact on impressionable listeners at the time.
I think that some of George's exploits would make fascinating reading today and a glimpse into an era of the record business that existed 60 years ago. I'd be happy to write up such an article if I had any idea of where to publish it.
