I ran across that collection a while ago, too. I absolutely LOVE that sort of thing. If anybody knows of other photo collections of 30's to 50's bandstand scenes, I'd sure like to hear about it!

| Jim, I just got a reply from forumite Wayne Tanner about the shots of him, you'll see a handful from San Antonio with him towards the end of the reel. I think these collections are important too. |

Nice photo of Ernest Tubb with Butterball Paige too! They are easier to view if you use the page index.

Among others, I saw Marian Hall, Ernie Ball, and a very young Hank Garland.

Thanks for posting Ron. Man, those Fender steels were everywhere in those days.
Vance Terry was one hot player.
Happy Holidays,
