TIme For Early TV With Bob Hope!

From Easter Sunday (April 9), 1950, here's Bob Hope starring in his first television special, Star Spangled Revue.  Joining Bob are Beatrice Lille, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Dinah Shore, Hal Le Roy, Maurice Rocco, Walter Greaza, David Burns, Carl Reiner, Dan Liberto and Gloria Patrice, The Look Magazine Cover Girls, The Mexico City Boys Choir, and Wendell Niles.  This NBC special, sponsored by General Motors' Frigidaire division, was directed by Hal Keith and produced by Max Liebman.

Sorry for the less than perfect video picture.
