It was the decade of a World War and a Cold War. It was the decade of the Zoot Suit and FDR. But most of all, it was the decade of Jack Benny! Radio's favorite comedian truly came into his own during the 1940s.
All the proof you'll need is in this collection of twenty digitally restored and remastered episodes from those years. The miserly master of ceremonies matches wits with his collection of comic foils: Mary Livingstone, Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, Phil Harris, Dennis Day and Don Wilson.
Includes a Program Guide by radio historian Elizabeth McLeod.
