A few days late on this old news article.
Notice that the article says that the name of the show is “Kiddie Kaper” and the ad has it as “Kiddie Kapers.” The article also misspelled Aladdin once and then has it spelled correctly. I wonder what other mistakes are in this article.
Remember when clowns weren’t scary?

I like the small print. Sponsored by Park Avenue Hospital for the benefit of the new Park Ridge Hospital. Can that be right? 50 years!
Yes and no. They were raising funds to build the hospital but it didn’t open until 1975.
