Author Curtiss Candy Company, sponsor of the program.
  • If this was later than the 1940's, it would be television instead of radio as both the adult and kiddie shows began moving from radio to television in the late 1940s to early 1950s. The sponsor was bought out by Standard Brands in 1964.
  • The Jolly Jack bar shown on the card was a nickel until the late 1940s, when its cost increased to ten cents.
  • Billboard August 1, 1942, page 70-"Curtiss Candy Covers Camps"-details that the company was a sponsor of radio shows.
