Description

I am offering two copies of the same transcription disc, with each disc containing program #356 (February 14, 1954) and program #357 (February 21, 1954) of The Comics Weekly Man radio show featuring Puck, the Comic Weekly.
The discs are labelled WOR Mutual, which was/is radio station WOR AM 710, broadcast from New York.  I seem to recall the narrator for these programs was prolific radio actor Lon Clark, best known for playing the lead in the Nick Carter, Master Detective radio program.
Although numerous episodes of the radio program are available digitally on-line, I have never seen these two specific episodes available anywhere.
According to the Old-Time Radio Researchers Group:  Comic Weekly Man aired from 1947 to 1954 and was a show where the Comic Weekly Man would read the Sunday comics in a dramatic fashion, complete with music and sound effects as well.

Adults and children of all ages would tune in to hear the show and to enjoy the antics of the Comic Weekly Man. He read from such strips as Blondie, Beetle Bailey, Hi and Lois, and many, many others.
