Description

Frank Laiken skipped town to avoid paying alimony in 1928 and was never to be seen again.  His ex-wife Rose learned of a man named Noach (Noah) Goldberg that had died in Vienna.  She was certain that Noah was her husband's alias.  His wooden leg was all that was needed to make the connection.  Also learn about which Crayola crayon color was changed in 1962, a fake mutiny, the drunken elephant rampage, and a sad death by a falling flower pot.  Retrosponsor: Hallmark Greeting Cards.Learn more about your ad choices.
