The Johnson Wax program was Fiverr McGee and Molly. A makers of Johnson Quacks and Johnson's self-folishing blowcoats present Fiverr McGee and Molly, written by Don Quinn with music by the Kingsman and Billy Mills Orchestra.
The show opens with Hallelujah. At a friend's house last night, I sat alongside the window and couldn't help noticing that the window sills had been waxed and were shining. I looked around the room and out bet I saw ten other places that had been waxed.
