The show, "Guest Star" was a program that ran during and a bit after the war. From what little information I could collect, it's main reason for existing was to advertise and drive for U.S.War Bonds.
There are many shows available with great sound quality (for the most part) but 90% or more are devoted to music and musical stars.
There are however, a few shows you should know about because they are of the stars you probably listen to: and what we have below are about 12 minute versions of the regular show (done just like the regular show!) - except these are all shows not documented in that particular show's logs. These are like mini bonus episodes!
In the case of Fibber McGee and Molly - there are actually two different shows.
All the show themes are centered (or get around to at the end) War Bonds.
DO NOT MISS THESE! Download them all, you will be glad you did.
(Note: The Great Gildersleeve episode runs a couple of minutes short, including the ending of the Gildersleeve story.)
