Bob Hope || Elgin Holiday Specials, 3rd Annual Elgin Christmas Show || December 25, 1944

The Elgin Holiday Specials started in 1942 on the Armed Forces Radio Service as a way to bring a little bit of home to the men and women serving their country in the armed services. Airing during Thanksgiving and Christmas, the show was hosted by movie star Don Ameche.

The show was sponsored by the Elgin Watch Company and featured many famous entertainers of the time.
