This is available online as a publication of the Old Time Radio Researchers Group. I encourage you to visit them at www.otrr.org and I am certain you will be very pleased. This is an all-volunteer, nonprofit group, and their work is incredible! The pages I saw from the upcoming issue feature some fascinating articles (in addition to the Lum and Abner content). You can sign up for free copies of their amazing "Old Radio Times" very easily. Please give them a visit! Bob Burchett is preparing an article about Lum and Abner for the “Old Radio Times” magazine.
