Lower Mall Contest Winner

 The winner of the first television set to be given away as a prize in Cleveland. Not sure of the wisdom in this, although there was only one station on the air at the time, and it didn't start it's broadcast day until late afternoon.

From Boxoffice, May 22, 1948. I assume Mrs. Agnes Myers' trips to the Lower Mall became fewer once she had her telly set up.
