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

MAKI IN a high-ceilinged, old-fashioned bedroom of that Philadelphia house two little girls stood quietly under the hanging lamp, staring at the bed. It was a big bed, piled high with quilts; its posts were tall. "D'you think we dare?" one of them said. "Well, it's the chance we've always waited 6 for. Everybody's in Mother's room or running up and down the stairs. If we R hurry . . ." Another hesitant moment, and then the two children dashed forward together, scrambled up onto the quilts, got to their feet simultaneously, and began jumping up and down on the bed, each small face masked in a kind of grinning ecstasy. 12 V F UTL "Blossom! Elsie!" Sternly the man who came in — medium tall, grim-eyed, resembling General Pershing a little — stood looking at the suddenly motionless girls. They waited, breathless, for the expected condemnation, the command to proceed to the RED bathroom for more weighty punishment. Jumping on the bed was forbidden. EDGE "We don't know exactly why we did it!" wailed Blossom, suddenly; Father had been known to thwack softly, on occasion, when confronted with his daughters' tears. But tonight he advanced to the bed unsmiling. Then, unexpectedly, he sat down on the edge and gathered the four hands in his. "I've news for you," he said.
