2 Ultra Rare Views Of The Ed Sullivan Theater…Must See!

Aside from this super rare 1936 photo of the inside of what was then CBS Radio Theater #3, we also get a 360 degree tour of the Letterman set!

First, thanks to Val Ginter for this amazing shot of the theater in it’s radio configuration. CBS took a long term lease here in 1936 and used it daily. The first radio show to come from here was “Major Bowes Amature Hour”. Interestingly, “Arthur Godfrey’s Talent Scouts” radio show started here in 1946, and in 1948, it was the first television show from the newly renamed CBS Studio 50.

At this link, is a gorgeous 360 degree tour of Letterman’s set, taken just days before the show ended by Google https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7637784,-73.9829199,3a,75y,265.86h,102.33t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sF6p4b3jIFJwAAAQpmJtrQQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

    All 3 of these 360 degree views of the Sullivan Theater show not only 360 views from the stage; by clicking on the arrows, you can go throughout the theater, into the balcony, the lobby and backstage!

    I love the art-deco look CBS had in those days.
