Does it ever end?

Yes, another El Brendel post. Decided I needed some "professional" help since that other site has gone to the dogs. Up until two weeks ago I thought El's only appearance on "The Bob Cummings Show/Love That Bob" was an episode titled "Bob Digs Rock & Roll", but a posting on ebay make short work of that and another episode has been found where he appears, "Bob Wins the Olympics". I don't know too much about the Cummings show although there appears to have been a Miss Sweden character which appeared pretty frequently, so I'm betting there maybe even more appearances by El. Unfortunately, the database of who appeared in episodes which aren't out on DVD are pretty scarce, so anyone have any prints or know of a database or where documents might be held, which might give information?

I have a few Bob Cummings Shows , but off the top of my head I cannot remember seeing El Brendel. I will have to check my P. D. T V inventory which I hope to have online within the next couple of weeks

Louie, Richard Bann has mentioned that he acquired dozens of Bob Cummings' personal 16mm prints of this show. I don't know of anyone else who has any, apart from the scattered public domain episodes that are already easy to find.

That's great to know. It means I have zero chance of ever seeing it. He and I don't get along so hot.
