Do you remember the Mother Moose show, KoKo the KENI Klown, the Buckaroos, HiJinks, Romper Room and Through the Magic Window? You'll love this edition.
Could be. Unfortunately, our mother died 2 years ago along with most of my aunts and uncles prior to that. I've lost important links to Anchorage History of the late 40s and 50's. Also have a photograph of our ENORMOUS TV, Radio, Record Player; supposedly I was front and center but my mother had no idea that the image of CRT tv's could not be photographed. Funny, it's an up-close and personal image of 'nothing'. Mom wrote on the photo noting "Randy can't be seen" and kept that photo for over 65/70 years.

Hi, my sister Betty and I belonged to The Salvation Army Church in Anchorage. We were "Sunbeams", which was like Scouts for boys & girls. I was a student at Denali Elem. and in the 2nd or 3rd grade when the Sunbeams were guests on KoKo The Kenai Clown Show.
I remember going down the stairs to a lower floor. That was where the lights, boom mic, cameras and the set was. It was small. We we all interviewed and got to watch cartoons. Over all a fun learning experience of behind the scenes of a tv show. Everyone their was really nice.

So which studio show was on the air in the 50's where children were part of the program? I was on one show and it was prior to 1960. That much I know.
Randall - It may have been HiJinks with Frank Feeman on KENI-TV in the basement of the 4th Avenue Theatre.
