Description
Produced by WEBBER Advertising agency this is LOWELL THOMAS' radio broadcast "ON THE OCCASION OF PRES EISENHOWER'S APPEARANCE HERSHEY, PA" including "Fluff Extrodinary". The October 13th, 1953 visit to Hershey was Ike's birthday. This is from the same occasion where during Lowell Thomas' broadcast he made one of his most famous gaffs: Another on-air mishap had Thomas reading a story about President Eisenhower's visit to Hershey, Pennsylvania "where he was greeted by the folks who make chocolate bars, with and without nuts." ("Nuts" is a euphemism for "testicles.") As Thomas read the next story, he could hear the announcer breaking up with laughter in the New York City studio, which caused Thomas to break up, as well. Air checks of some of Thomas' gaffes (as well as recreations of his "bloopers") are available to collectors.
