Believe in yourself and you'll believe in Philip Morris, America's finest cigarette. And now Philip Morris presents the Bickerson's produced and broadcast transcribed from Hollywood, starring Miss Francis Langford and Mr. Lou Parker. Together they will portray the lead characters in Philip Raft's humorous creation, The Bickerson's, and as the battling John and Blanche, they will bring you an unre-touched picture of domestic tranquility.
