On the Chicago scene. From October, 1971, a Henry's TV commercial announcing a "personal appearance" by Captain Henry at the store on Western Ave (north of Belmont, across from the former Riverview Amusement Park). A still picture shown of Capt. Henry in astronaut gear. This aired during a "Candid Camera" rerun on WFLD, Ch. 32. Clearly a take-off on the Ronald McDonald roving restaurant stops. The "Candid Camera" episode first aired in 1965 on CBS, with Durward Kirby as co-host. After 18 years, "Candid Camera" left CBS, as a daytime rerun, in 1968. All the 1980s and '90s imitators never lived up to the original. Additionally in the Henry's commercial, free hamburger meal coupons were offered.
