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

We've had so many letters asking about Moore, and still haven't been able to contact him directly. However, one reader from Cambria Heights, New York, writes that he recently appeared on the Hopalong Cassidy and Wild Bill Hickock shows. And another reader from Louisville, Kentucky, reports he is living in Tarzana, California. One of these days, we may yet find the missing Mr. Moore. These are some of the personalities readers have inquired about.
