Roma Wine present Suspens Roma Wine made in California for enjoyment throughout the world Hello your house in Europe Roma Wine toast the world the wine for your table is Roma Wine made in California for enjoyment throughout the world This is the man in black here to introduce this weekly half hour of of suspense.
Tonight as stars we bring you two of Hollywood's outstanding actresses, Miss Ida Lupino and Miss Agnes Moorehead. And so with a remarkable tale of the sisters, and with the performances of Ida Lupino as Lydia Haskell and Agnes Moorehead as Elle.
Roma wines again hope to keep you in suspense. Well, when I think it would be very lovely, it has a far superior lining, pure silk, much heavier than the others we've looked at. Do you care for this one, Ms. Haskell?
Oh, yes. That's very nice. I believe I'd like to see something, perhaps even a little better. Of course, if you just step over this way, Ms. Haskell. Now here, here is an exquisite casket. It's something that really does honor to the departed.
Yes, it's beautiful. Now the interior is just the same as the love. But the casket itself is of bronze, solid bronze. Well, won't that be rather heavy? Yes, but not too heavy. Will there be six pallbearers?
I don't know. Well, it doesn't matter really. the four men can carry this very easily. Very. Ms. Haskell, I want you to notice the floral design here, all hand-rot every bit of it. And, oh, yes, notice the seams in this casket.
Air-tight and water-tight guarantee. You know, of course, how important that is. Yes, yes. But this casket in a hundred years, or even two hundred years, will be just as strong and will look just as beautiful It is beautiful as it does on this stand today.
