Mr. Dog sir,
I'd like to thank you for those great photos, and memorabilia. That shot of Bill Hughes and the late Frank Sr. reminds me of a guy I knew who worked at NW in the Roving Mike days. He claims that there was many a time when the board operator had to check with the writers in the copy department to find out what "number" Roving Mike it was, as the intro page to the program was blank, and that many times they just pulled a number out of the air. So, the 500 thousandth edition of the Roving Mike may well have been the 200 thousandth, or the 1 millionth edition....who knew. Don't know if that story is true, but there are a million stories in the naked city, and that just might be one of them..
