| EvenBob Member since: Jul 18, 2010 Threads: 231 Posts: 6402 | I barely knew who he was when he was around. He was one of the 'characters' left over from Vaudeville, he'd never make it in show biz today, what was his 'talent', exactly.

| EvenBob Member since: Jul 18, 2010 Threads: 231 Posts: 6402 | He was a big radio star in the 30's and 40's and in the very early years of TV. He had a big nose and a raspy voice that was made for radio comedy. He was a big deal in his day. People don't realize that radio stars like George Burns and Bing Crosby and others made thousands of dollars a week on the radio, when your average person was making $2500 a year.
