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

"Six years ago I did a story about Garry for Radio-TV Mirror — spent the ; best part of a day with him, and wrote my impressions. Since then I haven't seen him once. The idea is to check up on him again, now that he's so all-fired terrific on TV, and find out what time hath wrought with this guy. A cinch, hey?" "I don't know what Garry was like six years ago," Shirley said, "but right now he's a businessman with about nine sponsors. He coiomutes from his house in Rye, keeps business hours from ten to five, and commutes out again to lead a pleasant home life with his wife and children." "I beg your pardon?"

"Yes," she said firmly, "and, furthermore, his ruling passion is a 35-foot yawl called The Red Wing, which he sails constantly all summer and putters at all winter, and he has a springer spaniel named Sam. They romp together." "H this is true," I said, "time has certainly (Continxied on page 105) Garry Moore emcees I've Got A Secret, CBSTV, Wed., 9:30 P.M. EST, for Cavalier Cigarettes.
