I'm sure about this one because I'm the voice of the teacher.
I used a commercial bore tenor with a Shastock Solotone I bought from a pawn
shop.  I was the voice from the early 70s thru the late 90s.
We did the weekly shows as well as the specials along with Garfield and
Betty Boop.
This is one of the few subjects I'm sure about"

Hey Dean,

Did you ever take the time to figure out the amortization on that Shastock 
mute. I mean, would you be willing to disclose to us what that mute cost you 
at the pawn shop, and then divide that cost into the the total amount that 
you made over 30+ years playing the teacher character. Inquiring minds and 
all that crap.
