One of the earliest popular old time radio shows, Cecil and Sally broadcast out of San Francisco. It was one of the earliest old-time radio shows to be syndicated nationally via electrical transcriptions and by 1930 they had over 15 million fans.
The two met while working in KYA radio station in San Francisco where Helen Troy was an organist and Johnny Patrick was an announcer. The two created Cecil and Sally with fun office banter when Helen picked up her mail. She would talk in a baby voice with a lisp, and he would speak in a Yiddish dialect.
Eventually they came up with skits and put on the air until the working title The Funniest Things first broadcast in 1928. This show soon changed to Cecil and Sally and ran until 1933 as a short format program.
The 15 minute "Cecil & Sally Show" was the brainchild of American playwright / screenwriter, Johnny Patrick and his co-worker/partner, Helen Troy. In the late 1920s, companies sprang up across America for the purpose of recording music or programs which could be sold, or syndicated, to a number of local or distant city radio stations. One such station, a San Francisco firm by the name of MacGregor & Sollie Inc., produced the "Cecil & Sally" radio program.
Mailed to many radio stations across America on large electrical transcription discs (ETs), these radio companies could then plug the "Cecil & Sally" show into whatever time was convenient for their schedule. An example of one such station was WKAV radio in Laconia, New Hampshire, which in 1931, was under contract to pay MacGregor & Sollie $17.50 for each episode, over a 26-week run. In 1928 at KYA, the serial program debuted on the West Coast connection of the short-lived ABC network, and moved to KPO and NBC after the former network went bankrupt in 1929. The program ran on NBC until 1933 and was among the earliest radio shows to be nationally syndicated via these "ETs."
Johnny Patrick as Cecil, & Helen Troy as Sally, rolled this screwball comedy serial into one of the first nationally syndicated, transcribed (pre-recorded) programs. Patrick wrote over 1,000 scripts for Cecil & Sally; Troy sang with him, playing either the piano or the organ. Her character, "Sally," endeared herself to West Coast listeners with her girlish lisp, referring to her partner not as Cecil but as "Thee-thill."

The 15 minute "Cecil & Sally Show" was the brainchild of American playwright / screenwriter, Johnny Patrick and his co-worker/partner, Helen Troy. In the late 1920s, companies sprang up across America for the purpose of recording music or programs which could be sold, or syndicated, to a number of local or distant city radio stations. One such station, a San Francisco firm by the name of MacGregor & Sollie Inc., produced the "Cecil & Sally" radio program.
Mailed to many radio stations across America on large electrical transcription discs (ETs), these radio companies could then plug the "Cecil & Sally" show into whatever time was convenient for their schedule. An example of one such station was WKAV radio in Laconia, New Hampshire, which in 1931, was under contract to pay MacGregor & Sollie $17.50 for each episode, over a 26-week run. In 1928 at KYA, the serial program debuted on the West Coast connection of the short-lived ABC network, and moved to KPO and NBC after the former network went bankrupt in 1929. The program ran on NBC until 1933 and was among the earliest radio shows to be nationally syndicated via these "ETs."
Johnny Patrick as Cecil, & Helen Troy as Sally, rolled this screwball comedy serial into one of the first nationally syndicated, transcribed (pre-recorded) programs. Patrick wrote over 1,000 scripts for Cecil & Sally; Troy sang with him, playing either the piano or the organ. Her character, "Sally," endeared herself to West Coast listeners with her girlish lisp, referring to her partner not as Cecil but as "Thee-thill."

One of the earliest popular old time radio shows, Cecil and Sally broadcast out of San Francisco. It was one of the earliest old-time radio shows to be syndicated nationally via electrical transcriptions and by 1930 they had over 15 million fans.
The two met while working in KYA radio station in San Francisco where Helen Troy was an organist and Johnny Patrick was an announcer. The two created Cecil and Sally with fun office banter when Helen picked up her mail. She would talk in a baby voice with a lisp, and he would speak in a Yiddish dialect.
Eventually they came up with skits and put on the air until the working title The Funniest Things first broadcast in 1928. This show soon changed to Cecil and Sally and ran until 1933 as a short format program.
The 15 minute "Cecil & Sally Show" was the brainchild of American playwright / screenwriter, Johnny Patrick and his co-worker/partner, Helen Troy. In the late 1920s, companies sprang up across America for the purpose of recording music or programs which could be sold, or syndicated, to a number of local or distant city radio stations. One such station, a San Francisco firm by the name of MacGregor & Sollie Inc., produced the "Cecil & Sally" radio program.
Mailed to many radio stations across America on large electrical transcription discs (ETs), these radio companies could then plug the "Cecil & Sally" show into whatever time was convenient for their schedule. An example of one such station was WKAV radio in Laconia, New Hampshire, which in 1931, was under contract to pay MacGregor & Sollie $17.50 for each episode, over a 26-week run. In 1928 at KYA, the serial program debuted on the West Coast connection of the short-lived ABC network, and moved to KPO and NBC after the former network went bankrupt in 1929. The program ran on NBC until 1933 and was among the earliest radio shows to be nationally syndicated via these "ETs."
Johnny Patrick as Cecil, & Helen Troy as Sally, rolled this screwball comedy serial into one of the first nationally syndicated, transcribed (pre-recorded) programs. Patrick wrote over 1,000 scripts for Cecil & Sally; Troy sang with him, playing either the piano or the organ. Her character, "Sally," endeared herself to West Coast listeners with her girlish lisp, referring to her partner not as Cecil but as "Thee-thill."

One of the earliest popular old time radio shows, Cecil and Sally broadcast out of San Francisco. It was one of the earliest old-time radio shows to be syndicated nationally via electrical transcriptions and by 1930 they had over 15 million fans.
The two met while working in KYA radio station in San Francisco where Helen Troy was an organist and Johnny Patrick was an announcer. The two created Cecil and Sally with fun office banter when Helen picked up her mail. She would talk in a baby voice with a lisp, and he would speak in a Yiddish dialect.

The 15 minute "Cecil & Sally Show" was the brainchild of American playwright / screenwriter, Johnny Patrick and his co-worker/partner, Helen Troy. In the late 1920s, companies sprang up across America for the purpose of recording music or programs which could be sold, or syndicated, to a number of local or distant city radio stations. One such station, a San Francisco firm by the name of MacGregor & Sollie Inc., produced the "Cecil & Sally" radio program.
Mailed to many radio stations across America on large electrical transcription discs (ETs), these radio companies could then plug the "Cecil & Sally" show into whatever time was convenient for their schedule. An example of one such station was WKAV radio in Laconia, New Hampshire, which in 1931, was under contract to pay MacGregor & Sollie $17.50 for each episode, over a 26-week run. In 1928 at KYA, the serial program debuted on the West Coast connection of the short-lived ABC network, and moved to KPO and NBC after the former network went bankrupt in 1929. The program ran on NBC until 1933 and was among the earliest radio shows to be nationally syndicated via these "ETs."
