Svengoolie


Svengoolie, originally uploaded by Subject is too Cute.

I had the incredible luck of meeting another childhood hero today! Svengoolie, or previously known as Son of Svengoolie! He was in Berwyn today for it's 100th birthday celebration parade! He was nice enough to take a few photos.

Svengoolie has hosted his cheesy television show for years. I watched his program as a child and enjoyed all of the Godzilla / Dracula / Wolfman / Frankenstein flicks mixed with Svengoolie's brand of humor. He put Berwyn on the map with a sound board effect that says "Berwwwwwwyn???" whenever he read viewer mail.

This photo is number #61 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at 100 Strangers
