Remember the Edsel, the TV and radio repair shop, and the furniture upholstery shop? Here's a look back to the 1950s, when very few big ticket consumer items were thrown away. Listen in to the thrilling days of yesteryear as former KFMB radio personality Ian Rose shares some thoughts on the serials of the 1930s and 1940s that helped feed the programming monster of early 1950s TV. Most of this segment is devoted to the great TV commercials and product pitches of the 50s. Plus, another retromercial.
