Al Jolson singing his story from 13 Aug 1941

Excerpt of the 13 Aug 1941 Treasury Hour Program, featuring Al Jolson. Having just closed his last Broadway show, Al Jolson joined in this effort to sell Defense Bonds before World War II erupted. Here is an edited version of his closing segment, which suggests the plot of his life story, The Jolson Story, to be made five years later. The complete one hour broadcast, along with other Jolson radio shows, is available at the Official Al Jolson Website at www.jolson.org.
