Where do we get dial covers now-a-days?
Need Philco 41-258 console dial cover.

Or, come to Kutztown - at least two vendors there make them and will take an order if not already in stock.

Thanks Peter, I ordered one from them.
I can't swing a trip to Ktown this year.

Bill went radio silent a very long time ago. My guess is he's passed on, but who knows?

When I last saw Mr. Turner at Kutztown nearly 20 years ago, he was not in the best of health, and considerably older than I am (now 70). I expect he is no longer with us.

A little web searching suggests he's still with us at 87 years of age:

https://www.truepeoplesearch.com/details?streetaddress17%20PIKE%20ST.&citystatezip=ST.%20CHARLES%2C%20MO&rid=0x6

I remember he had vision problems as well as other health issues.  In any case, I wish him well.

From what I've seen on ARF, he died a number of years ago.

Those search engines do not sort by dead/alive.

Depends.  Often there will be a "(deceased)" next to the age, but certainly not always.  If it says deceased, it's generally accurate, but I have seen some that don't say deceased when they are.  I just put my mother in law's name in the same site, and it shows deceased which is correct:  https://www.truepeoplesearch.com/details?name=Sheila%20Doyle&citystatezip=Wolcott%2C%20CT&rid=0x0

That sounds like a fun show to see.  Looks like a 5.5 hour drive from
me; wrong side of PA.  When is it?  I might be able to plan for it this
year.
