Al Pearce
(1898 – 1961)

Comedy Al Pearce(1928 -1947)

The Al Pearce Show, also known as Al Pearce and his Gang, is a comedy show that changed much through its run due to an unstable relationship with networks and sponsors. Al Pearce got his start in show business when he was working as a real door-to-door salesman. He was type-cast as a timid door-to-door salesman in a comedy skit in which he would hope that customers would not be home because he didn't want to face them.

The popularity of the skit in KFRC San Francisco aided in the creation of the Al Pearce show in this collection.The show consists mainly of skits of Arlene Harris "The Human Chatterbox" who would talk 240 words per minute on a telephone conversation to a friend, Mazie. There was also Kitty O'Neil "The Laughing Lady" and Andy Andrews the singing comic, as well as a hilarious Zeb and Eb skit with Pearce playing the role of Eb and Bill Wright as Zeb. This comedy collection of talented comedians and singers will delight all.

    Pretty good show. But his salesman character is creepy, not funny. He sounds like Jack Nicholson! The rest of the program was funny
