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

ALL AMERICAN BOY Weissoul (Played by Herb Butterfield) THRILLING is the only word for the adventures of Jack Armstrong, youthful hero of the serial that delights children (and their elders too) five afternoons a week at 5:30 on the Blue network, sponsored by Wheaties — and here, for your further enjoyment, are presented pictures of Jack and his friends, as well as one of his bitter enemy, Weissoul, "man of a hundred faces." Weissoul is a master spy whose plots Jack and his best friend, Billy Fairfield, aided by Billy's sister Betty and Uncle Jim, are usually able to defeat — 'although they have not yet succeeded in capturing Weissoul himself, due to his ability to disguise himself at will. Just now Jack and the Fairfields are in Africa, where Axis agents are attempting to enlist the help of native tribesmen in destroying United Nations air bases. If you haven't yet made the acquaintance of Jack, now is the time to start. HHHnMHMMH^HHHBi Uncle Jim Fairfield (Played by James Goss) RADIO MIRROR
