EH! "Young Dr Baloney!"

This parody is based on Young Dr Malone, a long-running radio (and TV) soap opera...

...about a handsome (and married) doctor who nurses and patients alike constantly lusted after!
Young Doctor Malone had a long run on radio (1939-60) which overlapped the TV version (1958-63).
Because both series aired daily Monday to Friday, the two incarnations had different casts and ongoing plotlines!
(Some series which ran weekly, like Dragnet, used the same cast members in both versions)
The show's creators/producers Betty and Ted Corday, later conceived and produced TV's Days of Our Lives, one of the few soap operas still on the air!
This spoof from Charlton's Eh! (1953), one of the many MAD comic clones of the era, was illustrated by Dick Ayers and likely written by the book's editor, Al Fago!
