I "THINK" she/they had a radio show back then called "Hi Jinx !" that was sort of a radio version of "I Love Lucy"...For whatever reason, they seem NOT to have had a big career in TV...I've always wondered about the "ALWAYS dressed to the Nines" business...Did it NOT get hot back then, in them non-air conditioned days? Did Ward Cleaver ever NOT wear a suit ? I remember seeing another Tex/Jinx ad, shilling GE television-"It's America's Grandest Value !" & mentioning it was made in a place called "Electronics Park"... Best one I've seen, though, has to be a Hallicrafters ham radio ad from 1935, "Science gives you the..." & some model of super hot-shit model of a ham transmitter sitting there w/this SCARY Frankenstinian dude in the requisite tie & lab coat gazing down upon it, the expression on his face suggesting HE might have just given birth to it hisself...
