Here's a photo of the cool ghoul himself, Broadcast Pioneers member John Zacherle. On the right is the set used for live commercials. Right next to it, John Zacherle performed all his ghoulish activities in the same studio. By the way, it was also the same studio used for the 11 pm news with Broadcast Pioneers member John Facenda. Camera Operator looks like it could be a young Dick Kearney, a member of our Board of Directors.
