[GreenYes] Paper Egg Cartons

As a kid in the 1960s I recall winning a promotional record by "The Archies"
given by KOLT radio in Scottsbluff, Nebraska. I was the 10th caller which
was no mean feat given we had rotary dial telephones! My dad and I were
given a tour of the broadcast facilities, which consisted of two small rooms
under a radio tower out in the middle of a cow pasture. The broadcasting
room was paneled with old paper egg cartons for, I assume, acoustical
purposes. I still have the record.
We were admonished to "save the cartons" well into the 1970s here in
Nebraska. I assume they were returned to the grocery store or hatchery.
