Where’s the Timex???
I think the Caravan name came from the sponsor, Camel cigarettes. Camel-Caravan. Get it?
He took a licking and kept right on ticking.
I don’t think the stage manager is Harry Katzman. Harry was on the technical side of things. It might be Jim O’Gorman who spent many years after this in Sports in the announce booth with Curt Gowdy.
NY Times ad dated Wednesday 2/16/49. Notice that the sponsor is not mentioned.
