Beginning in 1934, NBC broadcast national radio shows from Herman Pirchner's Alpine Village that featured the likes of Artie Shaw, Cab Calloway, and Pearl Bailey. NBC's shows made Pirchner a national celebrity. Pirchner is seen here with guest Jack Dempsey, a famous boxer who had held the World Heavyweight Championship title for much of the 1920s before going on to star as a boxer in an MGM film and open his own eponymous restaurant in New York City. | Date: ca. 1940 | Source: Cleveland Memory, Cleveland State University Library Special CollectionsDownload Original File
