… Hi kids, this is your Uncle Don Sherwood, with Winnie The Pooh …
[Description by contributor Alan Kline]
This was the very last broadcast of the “classic” KSFO, from 11:30pm to midnight on December 12, 1983. Don Sherwood, the legendary morning man, had just passed away a few weeks prior to the station’s sale.
Here, Don reads the first three chapters of “Winnie the Pooh”, adding a few of his own touches. I have no idea when this was originally broadcast, but I’d guess mid-1960’s.
The segment ends with chapter 3, followed by KSFO’s Jerry Gordon making a few final comments just before midnight. Then, “Taps”, one last play of “The Sounds of the City”, and the automatic time tone that ended it all.
