Also, as in other discs I obtained from this series, the disc cutters captured part of the shows on WABC/CBS before and after "Pick and Pat" - this week, after the minstrel hjinks of our comedy duo, you get to hear the opening of the "Mercury Theater". Now that's going from low brow to high brow in short order, isn't it? We hear parts 1 and 3 of the program only; the second disc for the episode is unfortunately lost. In the opening routine, Pick plays his harmonica and Edward Roecker sings "Dust". In the second half of the program, Pick and Pat do a routine about selling strawberries. As usual, we get to hear plugs for their sponsor, Model and Dill's Best tobacco. The show was transferred from an original WABC aircheck laquer recorded by Advertiser's Recording Service, New York for the series producer, Frank Mcmahon. The program was previously lost.
