• From the list of supporting cast and their photos, this appears to be circa 1939. Some characters shown on it were introduced in that year, while others who were introduced later in the run of the program are not pictured in the cast photo. The radio program aired from 1935 to 1959.

• The dating makes the item well within the pre-1978 timeframe.
