So this is 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.000 the new Arama. 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:50.760 From nineteen thirty.

So can you believe in 0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:13.280 the nineteen thirties there were in these days. Of course, 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:16.440 you got all these footballs jumping around of the new 0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.840 dance programs and so forth. So people are saying, gee, 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:22.040 that's a bit novel. No it's not. They were doing 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:23.240 it back in the thirties. 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:27.200 They were doing it. But I'm just looking at those names. 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:30.400 Can you blow that up a little bit for me? Jay? 0:04:30.200 --> 0:04:35.640 The names down there from South Melbournston Kilda. There's one 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:39.800 there from Williamstown too. I think it was tod Ron Todd. 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:43.400 Yeah, Dad, Herbie Matthews, I think from South Melbourne. And 0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:46.080 the whole sack of them down the bottom. The last 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:49.200 one was alb Panham from Collingwood and some of us 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:52.480 as well. Can you believe they and they would they were. 0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:55.040 All the dance bands are all listed at the top 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:58.240 as well. But the people who were doing the putting 0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:01.000 on the music, but they were doing it in the thirties, 0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:05.080 so people of today think, oh, it's really unusual. Fancy 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.880 all these football players being doing the dancing grow jos. 0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:11.800 Beck all those years, and I love the way they 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:16.240 outlined they go. The following players have been nominated to 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:18.480 represent their clubs. 0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:21.760 It's nominated in. 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:23.359 Other words, get your ass down there. This is what 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:25.440 you're doing is represent the club. Get down there now, 0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.280 start dancing, baby yep. 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:31.920 And all of the local bands at the top, the 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:34.440 names of all the bands that were there, and. 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.200 Just and I don't know what you noticed too, are 0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:40.480 sponsored by a couple of radio stations, three keys Z 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:45.719 in Melbourne and the greater three u Z yep. 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:47.600 Noither quit there anymore. 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:48.520 No, they're not. 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:50.960 And do you know the only radio station in Melbourne 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:55.400 that's kept its calls that the same name all the 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:56.560 way through? There's only one. 0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:03.640 Well, I'm assuming a W three AW. It would be year. 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:06.480 It would be because we used to have at one 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:09.400 stage three a R three l O three u Z 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:16.080 three dB three k Z three X Y three A 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:19.159 K they're all gone. What's the one that's still there, 0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:24.320 the one that sits on top and has done forever. 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:27.000 Long long time. Well, in those days two it was 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:30.480 twelve seventy eight and then came back to six nine three. 0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:36.640 That's right, it was, that's right, it was. It's a 0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:40.440 funny thing. Did you know every radio station called, every 0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:45.440 radio stations adds up to nine, every single one in 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:45.960 the country. 0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:47.880 Is it nine? Or eighteen. 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:53.080 Well what is eighteen eight and one two? 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:57.640 Good? Thank you? Yes, thank you? 0:06:58.680 --> 0:06:58.880 Yeah? 0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:01.920 Six nine three. 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:08.520 Eighty two, fourteen fourteen twenty two which was fourteen two 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:12.840 and two or fourteen twenty two was eighteen yes, yeph 0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:15.000 you forget, don't you? And there was some I heard 0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:17.840 Dennis talking about this on the program some time ago. 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:21.960 There was some odd reason for it, and I can't 0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:23.320 remember why now. 0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:26.840 Yeah, because at one stage there were long ago, they 0:07:26.880 --> 0:07:31.600 were every ten, you know, like like it'll be eight 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:33.440 eighty and eight ninety. 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:34.040 That's what it was. 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:37.160 But then for some reason, rather it's that's how it's 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:40.360 turned out. And if it adds up to it adds 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:43.400 up to either nine or adds up to eighteen, and 0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:44.840 of course eight and one is nine. 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:47.440 And our Perth listeners will be listening. They listened on 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:49.840 eight eighty two, eight and eighty sixteen plus the two 0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:53.840 eighteen eighty two six pr in Perth. You stayed there. 0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:55.720 Will come back in just a moment to talk more 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.640 about this souvenir astrod, which also looks good from your 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:02.000 old home down. We'll do that next and plenty of time. 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:04.720 The board is empty as we speak. If you have 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:06.560 anything you would like to share. Share, You can do 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:10.160 that right now with Rick Milne Antiques and Collectibles one 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.640 double three six nine three. Don't leave us here by ourselves, 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:16.920 because if you do, the programmer would then sound a 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:23.320 bit like this, which we know is really really awkward 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:26.720 because it sounds dreadful. Now. I don't know the Rick 0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.120 Milner would know much about this. I'm sure he would 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:32.640 because he's pretty smart. He's been around her for well, 0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:34.920 now that you're in your early forties, Rick, you would 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:37.599 have an idea of why it's called ketchup. 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:45.959 In America, they call it cats up, don't they. 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:50.520 Well, it's well to the the name origin. Apparently, according 0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:54.560 to David, who sends a note, ketchup came from a 0:08:54.840 --> 0:09:01.280 Chinese dish, which is a sauce made from pickled a fish. 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:05.719 Believe the traders made their way to England, where they 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:10.360 stayed in inns, often being called git chip in the 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:15.600 local dialect. So it's all linked into that in terms 0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:18.880 of what became their source of choice. We just call 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:20.520 it tommy Tommy sauce. 0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:21.880 How about that. 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:25.760 Dead horse? Yeah, a couple of calls here, which is great. 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:27.520 Thank you for those people ringing through you'll get through 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.320 straight away one double three six nine three. If you'd 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:32.520 love to be part of it, Ronnie in Burward Rick 0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:34.520 Milne is listening. Go ahead, good morning. 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:39.600 Hello, I've just actually sent I spoke to your producer 0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:42.520 and sent to may malt through. I'm trying to find 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:45.160 out who the artist is. I think it's Robert Cox. 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:48.080 I've got a couple of oil paintings that were left 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:50.319 to me from an art that passed. 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:58.760 Away and Robert Cox. Is that what you're saying, Ronnie, Yes, okay, 0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:01.079 well I'll tell you what. I'll do it. We're going 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:04.560 to take me a minute to do it, but while 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:07.760 we're on in the next five minutes, I'll look him 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:10.280 up in my huge book, which is about as big 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:13.200 as one of the old time phone books. And if 0:10:13.240 --> 0:10:16.680 he's listed, because if he's is he an Australian artist. 0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:21.080 I believe so, from like nineteen thirties or something. From 0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:24.560 what I've I've done a little bit a recess, not much, 0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:26.280 but I was driving in the car on the way 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:30.000 home and I only joves him out like three or 0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:32.840 four days ago, and then I had this part of 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:36.280 the program coming. I thought, well, I might keep your 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:37.480 brain Okay, I've. 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.120 Got the story on Robert Cox. I've found him already. 0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:41.960 We've while you've been chatting away. 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:43.679 You listen to this, Ronnie. 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:48.640 How about this Robert Bruce Cox. He worked during the 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:51.680 six seventies and eighties. He is offered thirty four paintings 0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:53.920 for sale. And by the way, if you haven't sold 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:58.680 a painting through public auction, you don't have credibility and 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:01.560 therefore your pain this, if you're in Australian you'd have 0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:03.880 to have done that. He's done that. He's off at 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.560 thirty four for sale of Whi's seventeen if sold at 0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:11.559 an average price of four hundred and seventy one dollars. 0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:14.400 So there you go. That's his average selling price. Now 0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:18.040 he sold a couple for a bit more, but generally speaking, 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:20.680 his price his highest price ever, by the way, was 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:24.000 fifteen hundred. But his average selling price is for seventy one. 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:27.079 So that's Robert Cox. That's the place to start. And 0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:31.200 if Ronnie, if you would like me too, give us 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:36.120 a call in the morning after ten and I'll put 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:40.920 you in touch with a very good up dealer who'll 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:43.640 be able to help be a bit more specific for you. 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:45.760 So if you'd like to be call, I'll give out 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:47.560 that number in a while, So grab yourself a pin 0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:48.800 in the meantime. 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:50.480 And we will take here and keep listening. 0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:53.839 Good on, Ronnie, how did you just to remind us again, Ronnie, 0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:55.720 how you ended up with these things? 0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:00.760 I inherited him.

Greg go on. 0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:37.480 Speaking of astrays, I've got one. I sent you one 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:41.680 from my old hometown, Hamilton and Western District. I went 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:46.840 to Hamilton High School for for five years and fell 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.440 in love with four girls who none of them leaving. 0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:54.080 They didn't they did not even know I existed, because. 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:56.480 You know, that was my first radio station, three h 0:14:56.560 --> 0:14:57.400 A Hamilton. 0:14:58.240 --> 0:14:59.760 Was it is that right in Gray Street? 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:00.760 Uh? 0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:03.400 Well, no, I think it had moved there. It was 0:15:03.440 --> 0:15:06.240 a little it was just a tiny little build. Well 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:08.280 maybe it was Gray Street, I can't remember now. 0:15:08.840 --> 0:15:12.320 It was on a corner. And I have to say 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:17.000 that if you look very carefully at that scene, it's 0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:20.440 taken more or less from about where the radio station 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:25.680 was looking down. Okay, the main street. How about that. 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:31.120 Little Gray Street that's the one. Yeah, you're right. It 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:34.920 was owned by the Washington family. Barry Washington was the 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:37.080 general manager's name, no longer with us. Had a great 0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:39.320 voice and did a lot of work at BTV six. 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:42.760 In Bellerat wasn't it wasn't that a TV station. 0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:45.400 It was a great TV station service alls in these 0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:49.160 areas like certainly like Hamilton in those days. 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:53.160 And they actually had one down in Gippsland, two at 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:57.960 Terrelgon right at channel ten g LV, Yeah, g LV ten, 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:03.240 and they had two EV six and they had a 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:05.560 lot of local programming, a lot. 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:07.600 I think Shephard and may have had one. 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:09.840 I think they may have as well as well. 0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:11.960 From memory, yeah. 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:14.400 I think you might be right. You know the other two, 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:17.040 I'm aware of those, and they were they were doing 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.360 programs that you didn't pick up in the city. It 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.320 was it was quite amazing really in a way. But 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:24.640 of course now it's all with homogenized. 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:27.880 I didn't know you were a Hamilton boy. So everything's 0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:29.520 connected in many many ways. 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:32.400 We have been a bit connected, haven't we. 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:32.680 We have? 0:16:33.000 --> 0:16:34.360 You were going to say about Hamilton. 0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:39.560 I was just going to say about speaking the footy 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:43.120 thing I've got there's an absolutely it's kind of a 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:45.240 double bugger in a way. It's a lovely image of 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:48.880 a TAA plane and all the ways they had laid 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:53.200 football is a sort of on the on the post 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.520 in front of the of the plane. They've been on 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.520 a footy trip. I reckon, that's just a little classic, 0:16:58.560 --> 0:16:58.920 that one. 0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:02.640 What would that have been there? Why would they be 0:17:02.760 --> 0:17:04.960 using t A a brand in a place like Hamilton. 0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:08.320 It's not from out this from west. This is the 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:09.040 West Adelaide. 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:09.960 Oh, I beg your pardon. 0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:14.240 I'm sorry, Okay, West Dad laid footay club and they'd 0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:16.800 gone on a trip and they took the plane. So 0:17:17.119 --> 0:17:20.320 now we're we've moved, we've moved on from Hamilton. 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:22.879 Forgive me, I'm sorry because I think I'm right about that. 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:26.879 Red Ansat that was the home for Anset. Wasn't Hamilton, it. 0:17:26.960 --> 0:17:31.720 Was and I actually still have a speaking of that. 0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:37.159 He had his depot behind the local Picture theater and 0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:41.240 he drove these little minibuses. He had these little fleet 0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:45.760 of minibuses which ran locally, well not just in the town, 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:50.000 but down into other little parts of the world, Marino 0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:53.280 and these other little places, Digby and so forth, and 0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:55.960 he used to That's how we started up driving one 0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:59.560 of these little little mini I suppose you call it 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:02.280 mini bus. You know, you could fit about eight people 0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:05.240 in I suppose eight or ten people and he and 0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:09.439 I've still got one of the original little cards that 0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:11.760 he that he put out, and that's where he started. 0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:14.800 And of course the fame and fortune made him made 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:20.040 himself a big shot and in flying, you know, but 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:21.480 that's where he started worked. 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:22.760 Out pretty well. Did you ever get down to that 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:25.080 Royal Male Hotel in dunk Kild. 0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:29.080 I don't think it's anything to do with that with 0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:32.800 Alan Myers, who was a the great mister Myers. H yeah, 0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:37.800 he and Ilough. I haven't been to it.
