NBC variety show covered under THE  
           BING CROSBY SHOW and THE AL JOLSON SHOW.                          
           BROADCAST HISTORY: June 26, 1933-Sept. 22, 1949, NBC. Mondays for 
           six weeks, then a longrunning Thursday night series. Kraft Foods. 
           The Kraft Music Hall was created to help launch the new salad     
           dressing, Miracle Whip, and soon made it the leading product of its
           type. The earliest series ( June 26, 1933-Dec. 26, 1935) starred  
           Paul Whiteman, with support from singing pianist Ramona, soprano  
           Helen Jepson, tenor Jack Fulton, Roy Bargy, and wisecracking music
           critic Deems Taylor. Al Jolson was the singing star into and beyond
           the Whiteman era ( Aug. 3, 1933-Aug. 16, 1934), though his tenure 
           was erratic. Bing Crosby occupied the main KMH years, Jan. 2,     
           1936-May 9, 1946. A period of transition, 1945-47, was handled by 
           Edward Everett Horton, Eddie Foy, and Frank Morgan. Al Jolson was 
           again the singing star from Oct. 2, 1947, until May 26, 1949. Nelson
           Eddy was starred in Kraft summer shows in 1947, 1948, and 1949, with
           Dorothy Kirsten as his costar the last two years.  (Dunning Encyclopedia of OTR)
