Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings. The early years in the 1930s show the interaction of motion pictures, recordings, the stage, radio and even politics. The role of radio in World War II is well covered in the 1940s, and by the 1950s the focus shifts to television and a new generation of personalities. -- David Pierce, 2013

Fan Mail T V R 16 Jiff ST. 5Z ^ Arthur Godfrey gets more stuff in the mail than any other radio personality. He gets: snapshots of babies ; kosher salami ; smoked turkeys and preserved kumquats; recipes for everything from stuffed artichokes to lasagna; jokes; blankets and liniment for his horse, Goldie; compasses, bows & arrows, and insect repellent for his hunting trips; snakes, baby chicks, Texas horned toads; patchwork quilts f and paintings for his 1 home; and, of course, thousands and thousands of letters. They tell him: "My three-year-old insists on dancing to your great Dixieland band." "All your bits with Buddy Hackett are the most." "The bean commercial you did with Danny Kaye really cracked me up." "Your show helps speed up my housework." "Your program is a very relaxed, bright spot in my day." And they also tell him off. (Arthur likes to say what he believes. And he does. So sometimes, instead of presents, he gets brickbats). If you've never written to Arthur Godfrey or sent him anything, you're either very even-tempered or you haven't been listening. He may delight you or irritate you, but he's never dull.. Tune him in, weekday mornings on your CBS Radio Network Station and hear for yourself. And if you disagree with him, sound off. But don't be embarrassed if he answers you on the air.
