One Complete 30 Minute Program On This 16 inch, vinyl, 33 1/3 rpm Disc

This disc was issued to radio stations for broadcast only and Not Available To The General Public, Very Rare!

"Information Please" radio program #17 circa 1942

This is a unique episode of this famous quiz program, as it features guest Wendell Willke as the guest host and presenter, as usual host Clifton Fadiman is one of the panelists for this episode.

Other panelists include regulars Oscar Levant, Franklin P. Adams & John Kieran

The first question, is a 3 part question, the first part is "name a work of fiction in which a funeral service is performed for a woman who is not really dead"

I could not find any reference to any existing copy of this radio program in any online radio log or database

Disc is in very good or better condition with light scratches that don't show up well in the photos.  Sound varies from very good or better to excellent-, plays with no skips

Due to their size, 16 inch discs may not play on standard turntables.   For $10 I can make a CD copy of the disc for the buyer only

U. S. Buyer pays $8.00 Media Mail Shipping
