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

...Julie Stevens Talented actress, Julie Stevens, represents the many fine performers who bring to life the personalities on NBC's roster of dramatic programs. Like her contemporaries, Miss Stevens is called upon for portrayals that run the gamut from wide-eyed ingenues to hard-bitten gun molls. She plays many daytime roles — heard on such programs as Front Page Farrell, Just Plain Bill and Rosemary. Julie's early NBC days were as Abie's Irish Rose. . . . Red Skelton Richard Skelton, champion mike mugger, a bad widdle boy, a knockout as McPugg, a brat as Junior, a rube as Clem, a delight as Willie Lump Lump, is overall a pretty funny guy, too, as just Red Skelton. As you might guess, the zany NBComic got his training as a circus clown following in the floppy footsteps of his father, Joe Skelton, noted circus clown of the '90's. With or without cap and bells, Red is a rare fellow — catch his TV program. Groucho Marx A soot-smear moustache, a yard-long fat cheroot and one of the most delightfully waggish minds in show business gives to Groucho's You Bet Your Life all of the hallmarx of hilarity unabridged. Prizes seem almost secondary when this unpredictable clown prince of horsefeathers and his free-rolling eyes tangle with an eager, excited contestant. After some forty-five years in show business, Groucho is now at his best, you bet your life. i
