Buster's Childhood

Buster, the beautiful baby

I was born in Texas, and at the age of 4 months, I was crowned Baby King in the Dallas Better Baby Show.
My family lived in the Dallas - Ft. Worth Metroplex for my entire youth.  Here I am at two years old.

This ad ran in the Dallas Morning News, and kicked off the sale of frozen Fletcher's State Fair of Texas Corny Dogs.  Being a nephew to Neil Fletcher sometimes had its advantages.
