Just got my picture taken with Mr. McFeely (David Newell)! |
|
Mr. McFeely is in the PA State Capitol building today helping with some promotion for children's TV. I stopped to say hello and remind him that back in the early 70's, I was doing volunteer fund raising for WQED and drove him out to a suburb for a photo op for some of the prizes to be auctioned off. I had a little two seater MG convertible (top up) and he put on his makeup and wig as we tooled along the Parkway East. Took him to my daughter's Montessori nursery school where the little kids mobbed him! What a good memory.
All of my now adult kids will get such a kick out of my picture with him.

...was a package delivery character on Mr. Rodger's Neighborhood. What most people don't realize is David Newell was (and possibly still is) the marketing director behind the show.
Later, JM
