The unveiling of the famous Kisn Aero Car. Look at the kids surrounding the Kisn corner! I have been searching for a (Kisn) building shot for a long time. Photographer Gino Rossi sent this to me last night out of the blue. What a great photo this is.

Hey Mr. Stump,
Did they ever get the flying car to fly, or was it just a cool prop? (Pun intended.)

Oh it did Fly! But after a few near mis-haps they sold it. Tom Murphy flew in it & will never forget that experience!

Oh my gosh, it is a wonderful shot of Kisn. It is great to see it again. Thanks for posting this. I went by this station so many times throughout my life, waving and honking at the DJs and going inside the building to pick up prizes. I miss this so much. It needs to come back and be at the same location. Does someone have the words to the Kisn gingle for Autumn? It started out: The leaves are beginning to fall.....It was my favorite as a kid.

Great shot of the KISN Corner... and the Aerocar. Somebody needs to put together a KISN scrapbook of photos, surveys, and other relevant 91derful items. Just make sure John Wanted-to-Be gets a copy... no matter what the price.

What a shot! I have never seen a wide angle before. Shot from the top of powells.
