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

x*->~^ OF TIME Why did they kill Robert Taylor's show before you had a chance to see it? What will this latest disaster mean to a man who, after thirty years as a star, is as broke as ever? Robert Taylor, age 52, is about the last of that Hollywood dynasty which spawned kings like Gable and Cooper. Back in the stone age, when Mr. Taylor crunched Garbo to his chest in "Camille," children screamed, teenagers fainted and women abandoned their husbands. . . . Today, a full three decades after he first began his reign, he is as broke as when he started. This was the year he figured he'd finally catch the brass ring financially. This was the year he was to star in a new TV series based on the files of a federal agency, Washington's Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The deal was signed, sealed and in production. It was killed by a chronic ailment, the pre-season shakes. These are the facts. From there on, however, the situation is a blur. The truth depends on which side you listen to.
