Hi Ted, just checking in for a moment.

Ah, I love "The Waltons" -- especially the series before Grandpa Walton passed away. It reminds me of spending time with my Grandparents (who were from the Ozarks) or with kin out visiting from the hollers.

Anyhow, John Boy wore an 8-panel (as did other characters from time to time). I found a picture of a younger John Boy wearing a rather flat looking one, but I do recall when he went away to college that he wore one a bit more like what I wear now, though his always seemed to run towards being a white /off-white color I think (hmm, Hollywood good guy in the white cap? )

Here's the picture:


I also found a couple of interesting links to Waltons related websites:

I really should get the early years on dvd, its tv that I don't mind my daughter watching.
