George Bodarky with Frank Jump's Fading Ads of NYC © Frank H. Jump

Hello,

We hope this message finds you well. Thank you so much for your past participation in and support of WFUV’s Cityscape. Coming up this weekend, Cityscape will be showcasing some of the most interesting characters and places featured on the show over the years, from a singing sanitation worker to the Hua Mei Bird Garden in Manhattan’s Chinatown. This “best of” edition of Cityscape is part of WFUV’s spring membership drive. If you appreciate our weekly exploration of the people, places and spirit of New York City, we invite you to show your support in the form of a financial contribution during the show on Saturday morning (4/21/12) between 7:30 to 8. You can come on board as a card-carrying member of WFUV with any amount. But, for a contribution of $50, we’ll thank you with a signed copy of Frank Jump’s Fading Ads of New York City. We are very thankful to Mr. Jump for his gracious contribution to our fund drive. He is a previous guest of Cityscape. You can check out that episode here.

You can make a contribution to Cityscape at any time between 7:30 and 8 am this Saturday by calling 1-877-938-8907 or on-line at www.wfuv.org. We would love to thank you on the air early in the show, so don’t hesitate to jump right in.

Thank you again! Have a great weekend.
