What happens
Leroy Forrester, the nephew of Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve, buys a large stock of Christmas trees on credit and sets up a lot next to Marjorie and Bronco's place.

The Great Gildersleeve is a radio comedy series, and this episode aired on NBC on December 12, 1951. Harold Peary and Willard Waterman are among the cast.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
