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

He couldn't make up his mind whether he should be angry or admiring, for Paul, in his characteristic way, again had changed the whole plan for the program right in the middle of the show. The switch was prompted by a letter from a viewer — one of the show's many friends. Paul liked it and instantly acted to carry out the idea the fan suggested. Right in front of everyone who was tuned to the Du Mont network, Paul had called for a recording not on the pre-agreed list, had directed the crew to bring in a new backdrop, had briefed Wanda Lewis and Sis Camp how to do the pantomime he thought would best carry out the idea back of the song, and had even told Len himself (Continued on page 76) The Paul Dixon Show, seen on Du Mont Television, M-F, 3 P.M. EST; sponsored by River Brand Rice and others. Letters from his fans mean a lot to Paul. They have brought cheer to his mother, sponsors to his show — when both cheer and sponsors were much appreciated. Lined up behind manager Mort Watters are Wanda Lewis and Sis Camp, Paul and "Len" Goorian. Below, newcomer Sis gets a warm reception from Paul and Wanda. 71
