I have a large button that says WAKY and TINA DEL GADO IS ALIVE. Anybody know the story behind the button? miguel

This was a contest, to find Tina Del Gado or something which ran in the mid-late 60's. It came about with Jim Brand & Bill Crisp. I do not remember it that much about it.

That button sounds really interesting because the whole Tina Del Gado thing originated from the popular jock the Real Don Steele. He would constantly say the phrase on air and run promos featuring a girl exclaiming "Tina Del Gado is Alive." To my knowledge from looking on the 79 site he had no connections to WAKY. Steele spent most of his career in California from the 1960's-90's.
