Before the war my dad (finally) got a job with Decca in Portland, being on the road calling on record stores in Washington and Idaho for the most part. After the war, he did likewise for Capitol, and when I was a little kid was working for Johnny Welch who leased juke boxes to road houses and the like. He really knew his apples and we long had his phonograph records, mostly jazz, which were moved from place to place. He was recalled for the Korean War and while he served as a navigator for less than two years we rather lost our prosperity 1949-1951.
