Transcript

Remember a hallmark card when you carry enough to send the very best. Tonight from Hollywood, the makers of Hallmark greeting cards bring you David Niven in John Balderson's Barkley Square on the Hallmark Playhouse. Each week Hallmark will bring you Hollywood's greatest stars in outstanding stories chosen by one of the world's best known authors.

They distinguished novelist Mr. James Hilton. Good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is James Hilton. Tonight on our Hallmark Playhouse we present the kind of story which I must confess I'm rather fond of. One that not only enchanched you during its telling but leaves you something to think about and even to wonder about.

This story is Barkley Square, John Balderson's charming play which has fascinated millions of thetigors all over the world. I suppose at one time or another every one of us has teased himself with the problem of time.

time, what time is, and the strange things that could happen if past, present, and future somehow got mixed up. I know no story in which this idea has been better handled than Baptist Square, and we're very happy to have as our star in it tonight, that very fine actor David Niven. But before we begin, here's Frank Goss with a word about Hallmark.

There are Hallmark cards for every memorable occasion on your calendar, for birthdays, Universal is holidays. Yes, for every occasion that calls for remembrance, for a friendly greeting, a word of good cheer, and expression of sympathy.

There is a hallmark card that says just what you want to say, the way you want to say it. And that identifying hallmark on the back, that says you cared enough to send the very best.
