    Pete Boyle Sr. had a local tv show in Philadelphia. This show was for the young kids. He had a sidekick, it was Snooper the Squirrel. Uncle Pete as he was known on tv lived around the corner from us in West Philly. We would knock on his door and give each one of us kids and autograph picture of hinself. He was on from the 50s into the 60s. It was his son who made it big, Pete Boyle Jr. Pete Jr. became a Christian brother but left there. We was Raymond's father on the tv show "Everyone Loves Raymond". Uncle Pete Sr. was always easy to approach. I saw this tray at a flea market and their junk became my valuable article. I hope you enjoy and check out my other priceless articles or as my kids call it "Dad's Junk".
    On the other side of the tray was a spinner. You would nick it with your finger and it would spin. I have no idea of the game or its purpose.

      Mesmerizing, surreal graphics and a great piece of local TV Americana. Thanks for sharing this great example of tin lithography.
