the '50's? Wow. I don't think we even owned television set until the mid '60's. Prior to that I lived in a place that didn't have such a thing. We used to sit around this huge radio and listen to the Goon Show from England. We used to also listen to the cricket. lol Now that's an experience!
Thanks so much for all that information! It's fascinating.
Clarabelle was a boy hey... The puppet has a bit of a scary looking face don't you think?
