Comment on Seattle Now & Then: KRAB – Listener Supported Free-form Radio by chuck reinsch

A year-and-a-half late, here’s a little more about Lowell Richards.

The notice in the Times can be seen at http://www.krab.fm/images/Lowell-Richards-1970-02-26-Seattle-Times.pdf

The same day the notice of his death was published (02/26/1970), the Times also printed this: http://www.krab.fm/images/Lowell-Richards-BP-1970-02-26-Seattle-Times.pdf There are a number of KRABers that signed the petition of support.

Finally, program guide 187 (March 5, 1970) has a poem in honor of Lowell on page 2. I suspect it is by Michael Wiater. http://www.krab.fm/ProgramGuides/KRAB-Guide-187-1970-03.pdf

Since much of the posting above was prompted by the photo of the crowd outside the doughnut shop, anyone interested can verify the details in guide 217, which has the photo on the cover. http://www.krab.fm/ProgramGuides/KRAB-Guide-217-1971-08.pdf

Thanks for your wonderful collection of photographs. I have lived in the Zindorf in First Hill for about two years now and have recently started searching for the history of this building (built in 1910). I have hit a lot of dead ends. Your website is the first real glimpse I have got on my neighbor hood and apartment in it’s early days. It’s truly very exciting for me.

I look forward to checking out more of your Seattle now and then posts.

Great Elks building!

Are their any pictures of the Seatlle Elks Lodge Room?

I heard it was big and nice and had a huge organ in it!

Wish I could see that.

Hi Joe! What a treat to see your work and the humor and saturation of color. Your earlier works are still on my walls. Cheers! Patty

I always like the street drug reviews.

They were like a restaurant review.

Purple Double Domes, Sunshine, Blotter, Orange Barrels.

How amazing, what a stick in the eye of “the man.”

And about John Von Herberg’s wife, Gene Dennis? She was on the Vaudeville circuit as a Psychic. They owned Von’s restaurant and the Broaadway Market beside the chain of theaters. Do you know about the fire at the Orphuem opening?

Comment on More Yakima Canyon by joe breskin

if this landscape moves you, you probably deserve to know that there is an almost magically hidden path into something MUCH deeper that heads west up a side canyon. I suspect it’s name should not be spoken in public places.
