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

The Comet line-up — in the usual order — Al Rex, bass; nnyself (John Grande!), accordion; Franny Beecher, electric guitar; Bill hloley, guitar (and "ideal" boss); Billy Williamson, steel guitar; Ralph Jones, drummer; Rudy Pompillii, sax. The home line-up below — Billy's wife Cathy; my wife Helen; Miss Linda Grande, 5, on accordion, and Master Billy Williamson, Jr., 4, on guitar. Now that you ve seen Helen and Linda (right), can you blame me for calling home so often? But Lord Jim's seen the band's $1 ,000-a-month phone bills — so who can blame him for blowing his top? 31
