2023 – Newly-found Uncle Floyd Show “Pictures on The Wall”

………………………………………………..(Ignore April 30, 2017 publish date – this was published on June 12, 2023)

 

I found this small stash under a lot of stuff – including some old knee x-rays – on the top shelf of a closet. They must have been there for about 40 years.

The above 2 pix weren’t taken during the “Voice of the Viewers” segment, but they’re two of the more ridiculous photos I took that show the pictures on the wall (I’ll bet Scott knows who the “contestant” is in the pic on the right. Hint: it was probably his favorite person in Newark……………and it’s not Gladys).

 

Some of these weren’t pictures on the wall, but rather some other UFS stuff I collected, like this charmer from Netto:

 

EVERYBODY has at least one of these, right?

 

These two aren’t albums, but rather one-sheet displays that hung in store windows or on store walls to advertise the album that I’m somewhat partial to:

 

I’ll bet General Delivery had a few blowups of this item plastered all over his barracks:

 

And now, to actual pictures that made it onto The Wall…………

 

From a very young fan:

 

Two from the same person:

 

No name on this one:

 

Check out the book:

 

This has to be from early 1984:

 

A familiar artist………..

 

I think this viewer objects to Netto’s spelling in the second pic (yeah, right):

 

“Fred the Furrier” – haven’t heard that name in a long time:

 

Not sure which station she’s referring to:

 

The top 3:

Yeah, that sounds like Captain Lou:

 

Good artwork:

 

This pic is a LOT of work! I made it a little bigger, so click to enlarge the detail:

 

My personal favorite:

This wasn’t on the wall – it was a Mugsy art card that he used in a Captain Fork bit about birds. Would you like to hear it? Click this:

You might have heard him mention something about Birdie taking pictures and then “flying down to Englishtown” (the sound gets a bit wonky there). I used to hear this all the time from the cast, who were inferring that I took pictures just to go to sell them at the Englishtown Flea Market.

I’ve never been to Englishtown in my life.

This Captain Fork bit taped on 1-17-83 and aired on 1-26-83 (in case someone has it in his archive for future airing on StageIt).
