The Gordon MacRae Show (Texaco Star Theater)

Gordon MacRae took over as host of theTexaco Star Theater in March of 1948. As an actor and singer, MacRae was an excellent fit for the musical variety show.

Texaco Star Theater was on the radio in some form from 1938 to 1949. In 1948 the show moved to television.
