This Probably Showed Up In Your Mailbox In 1963

Postby Dan Sys » Wed Sep 11, 2024 6:06 am

My good friend Patricia recently uncovered a box of vintage relics and documents which she went through and found this old "mailer" from Vancouver's CFUN 1410 dated 1963. She kindly donated it to the Aldergrove Promo Material Museum. Back then $500.00 was a good chunk of money!

The best CFUN promotion was their "Don't say Hello, say I Listen To CFUN" (I'm sure it was replicated in other markets). If you answered your phone that way, you won a good chunk of change...can't remember if it was $1,000. Every kid in my generation (we're talking the 1970s) always answered the phone that way and chided our parents if they didn't! LOL Yes the good ol' days. Now we "qualify" for a prize. Sheesh :violent1:
Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars!
