One of my favorite modern shows is "American Pickers" on The History Channel. For those who haven't seen it, it's a show about two antique dealers who "travel the backroads of America" searching through barns and basements and junkyards looking for interesting stuff.
In the newest episode, they are travelling in North Carolina, and one of the items they find a Volkswagen license plate frame marked "Frank Myers Motors, Anderson, SC." Not only was Frank Myers a character on The Andy Griffith Show, but he was a bit of a packrat himself (even though his treasures weren't worth a tiddly-boo). Frank the character, and Mayberry's Myers Lake, were named for the real-life crew member Frank Myers, but I doubt he was connected to the car dealer. -Paul Mulik _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
