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

"You should have been here yesterday," said George Backman, the set designer. . . . "You never saw such a thing," said a stagehand. . . . "Bud CoUyer got all choked up and red in the face and Janis Carter couldn't talk, she was that surprised," said Randy Kraft, the announcer. . . . "The people who won the house darned near broke up the show," said Louise Hammett, the associate producer. Breaking up that tight, competent, happy gang takes some doing.
