Description: Chicago, No publisher Given, 1949. Wraps. No publisher given. Chicago: 1949. Single sheet folded into four pages. Black and white photos and illustrations abound! With a stated circulation of 50,880. Fifth issue of this small magazine issued by the Kukla, Fran and Ollie Show, essentially an early fanzine for fans of the show. The Kuklapolitan Courier began in 1948, increasing in circulation until 1950, when it changed to a book format and was issued as a yearbook. Kukla, Fran and Ollie was ostensibly a television show for children, created by Burr Tilllstrom, in 1947. It involved puppets interacting with a woman, Fran. Using subtle humor based on the characters of the show, Kukla, Fran and Ollie became more of a hit with adults, and ran in various formats from 1947 to 1957. This issue of the Courier celebrates the show going national, behind the scenes photos, and a subtle advertisement for RCA, one of the show's sponsors. GOOD condition. Horizontal fold crease present. General toning. Minor soiling, creasing and wrinkling. Good .
