Book Reviews of On the Air: The Encyclopedia of Old-Time Radio

Book Review: This is the second edition, but the first was great fun.
Summary: 5 Stars

The original verison of this book came out years ago (1970-ish). Very popular with OTR folks because it lists obscure shows too. Not many - if any - photos in the first edition. Looking forward to seeing what has changed.
