Thanks for stopping by and visiting. I'm here as kind of an 'emissary' for millions of kids who grew up listening to and loving Jack Quinlan.
He was more than a voice behind the WGN-Radio microphone broadcasting Cubs' games. He was the MAGIC behind the microphone who invited us into the 'toy store' and the 'candy shop' every day. My audio books: "Jack Quinlan/Forgotten Greatness" and "Jack Quinlan/Forgotten Greatness-Part II" are my small token of appreciation and thanks in this extraordinary broadcaster's honor. They include virtually every known remaining clip of Mr. Quinlan's marvelous play-by-play.
You can conveniently order them online at (www.forgottengreatness.com) or via a toll free number (800-462-5232) at any time. Proceeds after expenses go to Mrs. Quinlan's charities, the Chicago Food Pantry and Chicago Boys' and Girls' Clubs. As we, hopefully, find additional treasures of Jack Quinlan's broadcasts, you'll be able to hear excerpts on the website and, who knows, perhaps even "Jack Quinlan/Forgotten Greatness-Part III"! Make sure you check in with forgottengreatness.com occasionally for updates.
Finally, if you, your folks or even grandfolks may have precious old Quinlan reel-to-reel tapes tucked away in the attic or basement, contact me! You, too, could play a role in memorializing this extraordinary broadcaster! You can email me at anytime at quinlancubs@aol.com.
