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

Der Bingle dines out with his wife, Dixie. Below, their all -boy family: Garry behind Philip, Lindsay, Denis. DID YOU ever see a legend walking? Well, I did — at the Bel-Air Golf Course in Beverly Hills. The legend vi^as carrying a golf club. So was I. But we were approaching opposite holes. As my path crossed that of the legend, the legend grinned, waved his hand and said as if it was a ritual we go through every five minutes, "Hullo, Bob." "Hi, Bing," I said back to him. That's my brother. Bing spends so little time in one place that frequently our conversation consists of a remarkable exchange involving no more than those four words. It has become pretty much of a standing joke between us. Nor are those four words to be underestimated. They're affection-packed. Like the relatively few others of my countrymen so privileged, when I am face to face with my brother I feel history crawling up and down my spine, warnmg me to make the most of this moment before Bing zings. ijl k 24
