Description

English: Editorial cartoon by Les Callan (1905–1986), reprinted from The Toronto Star in Radio Digest (February 1939)
No date is provided for the original printing in The Toronto Star. The cartoon appears below a headline, "Memorable Broadcasts," and prefaces a printing of the transcript of the original radio play, The War of the Worlds, broadcast October 30, 1938. The text below the editorial cartoon reads as follows:
FROM TIME TO TIME some quirk of fate, some state of mind, or some brilliance of thought makes a broadcast memorable. As such it deserves to be preserved, for after it passes from the news it becomes part of the color and woof of our history. As history and as a commentary on the nervous state of our nation after the Pact of Munich, we present this recent but none-the-less celebrated broadcast.
