At this time of year, I like to feature some of the Christmas related shows I've obtained over the last few months.
"Down Our Street" was a local program produced by WXYZ in Detroit featuring stories about people in the local area. This particular episode is a short drama about the inspiration for a local charity group, the Goodfellows, that occurred after a newspaper boy was robbed on Christmas.
The transcription is dated January 21, 1948, but I think the date might be wrong. This was part of a group of transcriptions I obtained that included discs of local shows from around the country from the same time period that, I think, were part of some type of competition. Another disc in this set is another episode of "Down Our Street" that also carries the same date - you can listen to it in this post on the blog.
The show was transferred from an original WXYZ, Detroit/ABC lacquer transcription. The show appears to be previously lost.
