Transcript

Another cup of Maxwell House coffee, George? Sure, pour me a cup, Gracie. Maxwell House is always good to the last... Gruff! Hmm, that gruff's good, too. Yes, it's Maxwell House coffee time, starring George Burns and Gracie Allen.

With yours truly Bill Goodwin, the music of Meredith Wilson and his orchestra, and our happy postman. For your Thursday night comedy enjoyment is George and Gracie, and for your everyday Today coffee drinking enjoyment, it's Maxwell House.

The coffee that gives you so much more, for so little more, that it's bought and enjoyed by more people than any other brand of coffee in the world. Yes, Maxwell House. Expertly blended and radiant roasted for rich mellow extra flavor.

Maxwell House. The coffee that's always good. To the last. Drop. George Burns is one of those lucky men whose wife looks after him. In fact, if it hadn't been for Gracie, George would never have gotten away for that rest in the pines.

It all started last week when Gracie said, George, yes, dear. Our radio program goes back on the end next week. And I think you ought to get away for a little rest before you start to work.

But I don't need to rest, Gracie. I feel wonderful. Oh, now, dear, I know how hard you work once the radio season starts, standing up there in front of that microphone, pouring into it all the charm and talent that is you.

Do you really think my personality comes over the radio gracias? Oh, darling, radio was made for you. And when television comes... Yeah? Well, let's worry about that when it comes. In the meantime, we'll save our money.
