The year was 1969…

The New York Jets win Super Bowl III…

The “miracle” Mets win the World Series…

The Beatles give their last performance…

The film Easy Rider premieres…

Neil Armstrong does the moon walk…

And soccer great Pelé scores his 1,000th goal.

1969 was also the year that outdoor advertising executive and San Francisco ad agency veteran, Richard Geary, met Elvis Presley’s manager Colonel Tom Parker.

The two hit it off immediately, and soon after, The Colonel asked, (putting it politely), Richard to open an advertising agency and handle Elvis as its first client.

The rest, as they say, is history.

Thank You…Thank You Very Much!
