May 14, 2013: The Golfer's Friend

 

I added fourteen more ads today, all from July 1984 plus one more Random Pages gallery addition. It's a Tuesday, 7/10/84 Blade Peach Section story, “5 Emmys for 1983 Programs” (on WTVG). There are two additions to the News/Special Reports Ads gallery, both for channel 13. First is a Friday, 7/6/84 ad for John Gillespie's 13 Strong News reports from the first Jamie Farr Toledo Classic golf tournament at Glengarry Country Club. There's also a Wednesday, 7/18/84 ad for Jerry Anderson's 13 News reports from the Democratic Convention in San Francisco. This must have been when WTVG stopped using the phrase, “13 Strong.” There's one addition to the Channel 24 gallery, a Saturday, 7/28/84 ad for Life Flight Chronicles, a program on the three helicopter pilots that flew for St. Vincent Medical Center's Life Flight, and also for ABC's coverage of the Olympics opening ceremonies from Los Angeles. There are two additions to the Buckeye CableSystem gallery, including a Sunday, 7/1/84 ad for ESPN and baseball on The CableSystem, the Mud Hens on channel 5A and the Atlanta Braves on WTBS. There's also a Sunday, 7/8/84 ad for CableSystem Night with the Mud Hens, featuring Mickey Mouse and pals celebrating the addition of The Disney Channel to Toledo's cable lineup. There's also one addition to the CableSystem Channel 5 gallery, a Friday, 7/20/84 ad for “Terror of Tiny Town” on The Movie Show, hosted by Paul W. Smith. There are three additions to the Radio Station Ads gallery, two for Health Care, hosted by Art Edgerton on WCWA-AM 1230. There's a Sunday, 7/1/84 ad for “Communication in Health Care” and a Sunday, 7/29/84 ad for “The Weekend Athlete.” These shows were sponsored by Blue Cross-Blue Shield. There's also a Wednesday, 7/25/84 ad for The Lucas County Fair, sponsored by WTOD-AM and WKLR-FM (K-100). There are also five additions to the Other Vintage ads gallery, two for the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic golf tournament, a Sunday, 7/1/84 ad and another 7/1/84 ad for Ohio Citizens Bank (Look for us on the leader board). There's also a Tuesday, 7/1/84 ad for Ball Park Bologna (A Tiger Trade) and a Sunday, 6/22/84 ad for Sohio ProCare (The Brain Trust). Today's last ad is a Friday, 7/27/84 ad for Kroger family discount days at the Toledo Zoo (Zoo Pons). August 1984 ads from the online archives of The Toledo Blade are on the way...
