Post-WWII television viewers got their earliest documented looks at it in Chicago Tuesday 5 July 1949 on WGN (Channel 9), in Los Angeles Tuesday 25 October 1949 on KTSL (Channel 2), in Atlanta Saturday 3 December 1949 on WSB (Channel 8), and in New York City Tuesday 5 December 1950 on WATV (Channel 13).
