Thanks to katmandu of sitcomsonline.com, he gave me this piece of footage from what is now WWOR Channel 9 in New York. It is saw a news clip from WWOR tv in 1987 when they did a story about Phil Levine who is a fan of The Honeymooners (Jackie died shortly before this.) He apparantly was a HUGE fan to the pint where he had lots of things that were never available in stores like The Great Gleason Express banner and such. He was a member of R.A.L.P.H.

I am going to attempt to attach two photos. Hope it works.

When I googled his name, it says that a Phil Levine passed away in 2016. Don't know if its the same person.

That's neat! Thanks for posting that!

My pleasure. I wonder what other goodies he has or had like scripts, episodes that are still “lost” etc.

No way to know what else he had, but scoring that train banner was quite a coup!

..I still have my R.A.L.P.H. badge and some newsletters somewhere. Never went to any of the meetings though.

As I recall Phil Levine was a big media and was a memorabilia dealer as well, or at least dabbled in it.

So are you saying that the guy has died? Like I said, when I googled his name, I got info. That A Phil Levine died. I am not sure if that’s the same one.

There was a fairly well-known writer/poet named Phil Levine who has, indeed, passed on.
