Subject: RE: Obit: Sargent Preston of the Yukon
Like Charlie Noble, the only Sgt. Preston I remember wore bright red. Everything on radio was always in vivid color, much better pictures than we got later on TV.

I remember the sponsor (Shredded Wheat?) used to print cutouts on the cereal boxes. One could have all of Dawson City put together on the living room floor, stern-wheeled river boats, the whole works. The downside was eating Shredded Wheat.
