Eddie K meets local Chicago author Kathy Headley at the Melrose Park Public Library. Saturday, September 29th, 2012., a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.
This is Eddie K, your host and photographer here at Eddie's Railfan Page.
This past Saturday, I did a presentation at the Melrose Park Public libary, about Chicago's amusement parks of the past.
I am proud to say that during the course of my blogsite hosting and later public speaking appearances,I have met some really wonderful people along the way. I had the pleasure of meeting local Chicago author Kathy Headley, who is in the process of completing a book she is writing about the candy industry in Chicago Illinois.
Kathy ran an add in a newspaper or two, looking for photos of the original Dove's Candies ice cream shop at West 60th Street and South Pulaski Road in Chicago's westlawn neighborhood.
I just happened to have a few 35mm photos that I had taken of this place during the late 1980's, and called her offering to help her with this request. Kathy's book should be published very soon.
n the background on the TV set, is the video of my recent talk show appearance on the Larry and Mike Show on public access cable television. The Tv show host Larry Conklin, looks quiete inquisitive at the moment.
It was a pure coincidence! L.O.L
Thanks for coming Kathy. I am glad that I was able to help you with your project. Good luck.
Eddie K.
