I wasn't intending to start a new topic but a quick search of VV revealed somewhat surprisingly no dedicated CJVI thread. Interesting considering with roots beginning in 1923 I believe it is the oldest radio station in the city.
Regardless one of things I do enjoy about the interweb, and local FB groups especially, is how on occasion you can be (pleasantly) caught off guard when something is posted that is directly related to your family.
So it was tonight when the "Old Victoria" group posted this beauty of the CJVI announcing lineup from 1960, including Mr ASE senior bottom row second from the right.
He spent 22 years in radio and TV and I thought I either had copies of or at least had seen any PR-related material featuring him. Wrong! Amusing thing here IMO is the tag line "The Happy Sound", lol. Good grief that sounds like Crooner Central. Then again this was Victoria in 1960. Not surprisingly dad and Joe Easingwood are by far the two youngest bucks in this lineup. Joe would have been 22 and dad was 26.
An interesting sideline is Lundy Sanderson pictured second from the right, top row. Any graduate of BCIT's excellent broadcast journalism school in the last 55+ years, which includes a huge number of radio and TV personalities very well known to most folks on this forum, have principally Lundy to thank as he was one of the main driving forces behind launching that program in the mid-60's.
