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

EDTonNBCstations). THE sun rose red and hot over the fields of Beechwood. Scarcely a breath of air stirred; the land was still under its burden of heat. Even the corn, waxing fat and rich in the Davis field, stood with drooping leaves, looking deceptively lifeless. Inside the old white farmhouse, Lilly applied the back of her hand to her moist mahogany brow, and groaned as she started up the stairs in search of young Sammy. "Lord save us," she muttered, "but this is sure goin' to be a scorcher. I'm most dead on my feet, and I ain't even started yet. Burned my bread, broke a dish, upset the coffee — and now that boy don't come when I call him. If that ain't enough things to make me sure the evil spirits has taken over these diggin's, my name ain't Lilly. Sammy I" She raised her voice, calling. Sammy's door was closed. There wasn't a sound from within. "Sammy!" Lilly called once more, and opened the door. Sammy was sitting on the floor, his paint book before him. He turned upon Lilly a look of elaborate surprise. "Did you call me, Lilly?" "Call you!" Lilly exploded. "I should think I been callin' you! What you doin', Sammy Davis, sittin' there on the floor when you know it's breakfast time — " "I'm painting," said Sammy. "I sees that," Lilly retorted.
