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

Roy Rogers' real and radio lives are very much alike — and he loves them both Roy Rogers, cowboy star, and Roy Rogers, family man and rancher, make ideal saddle-mates. The personal and professional lives of your favorite radio Western star have much in common, and Roy loves them both. Typical of his belief in the part he plays and of his loyalty to his fans was Roy's flat rejection of a Texas oilman's recent offer of $200,000 to buy Trigger, Roy's famous palomino horse. Said Roy about the horse with whom he rode to success: "There's not enough money in the world to buy Trigger!" As a cowboy star, Roy rarely, if ever, gets to kiss his leading lady, Dale Evans. In real life, however, he is married to her. On a rambling, comfortable, fiveacre ranch in Encino, California, Dale and Roy lead a happy, informal life centered around the family.
