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

LIKE A MILLIONAIRE A week's interest on a million dollars! That's what talented parents — introduced by their children — can win on this show The Vines' own home is in the San Fernando Valley. Stephen, five, introduced his father on Live Like a Millionaire. He and Valerie, who is three, stayed with friends during parents' spree. A new Chrysler, lent by the program, helped the Vines to get around the enormous distances that separate points in the L. A. area. Vines chose a tour of spots they rarely see in their city. At Helen Young's Beauty Salon in Beverly Hills, Virginia, who usually does her own, was given a personal consultation on hair styles. Miss Young is stylist for such a star as Lana Turner. Candlelight and wine and a serenade by accordionist Paul Gordo and violinist Abris Grabosky characterized the Vines' rendezvous in Little Hungary, a Strip restaurant. They also visited the famous Tail 0' the Cock restaurant. Dick Vine understudied the lead in "Song of Norway." Chosen as the lead in the road company, he had to forego the opportunity because of a serious illness. Final stop in an exciting week of living like a millionaire was a trip to the famous Mocambo. Auditions for aspiring "millionaires" are held twice a week in the NBC Hollywood studios.
