Reviews
Probably CBS, circa 1958 - 1960

Most of the material is clearly CBS from the late fifties to early 60s, probably circa 1958 - 1960. One must listen for the specific characters and how well they are developed. E.g., Wally Ballou was a relatively LATE character addition, whereas Mary Margret McGoon (i.e., Mary Margret McBride) was one of the first characters to appear (done miraculously by Ray). Artie Sckermerhorn (sic?) actually PREDATES Wally Ballou. Originally, Artie's was a one joke character who whistled with every "S" in a word. Artie first appears circa 1952 in the AFRTS show. Thumbs are to hang by! PS: Why are there NO postings of Mary Margret McBride's, One O'Clock programme? Bob and Ray are a lot better when you have heard the source of their characters.
