In 1964 when these pictures were taken John Grosbard worked in the ISTC at Paddington. They may remind you of him.<\/p>\n

I remember John Grosbard very well. I worked with him in 1975 when I first joined the ITMC at Paddington until\u00a0I was seconded to L M Ericsson for the development of the new AXE132 telephone exchange from August 1978 until mid 1981. It must have been during this time that John and Alf Culloden retired but I am not sure. May be some of the other guys who worked at Paddington during that time can update me. We shall see.<\/p>\n

The pictures and a few words (below) were provided by his daughter, Susan Mirande-Grosbard, who now lives in\u00a0Amsterdam.<\/p>\n

These pictures were taken in Feb. 1964 \u2013 I was only 9 years old.<\/em><\/p>\n

My Dad worked his entire life shift work\u2026 Something that had always made me still to this day walk around on tippy toes\u2026.<\/em><\/p>\n

He sent these photos to his sister who lives in LA and I received them back a few years ago when she decided to clean up the family photos\u2026.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
