What's on TV? Thursday, November 1, 1956

This is one of the older issues in the collection, and it gives us a good look at how TV Guide has changed just as much as how television itself has changed. There are still a good number of local shows, a lot of 15-minute programs (a carryover from radio days), and as I mentioned on Saturday, preemption and rescheduling are everywhere. Even with all the political talks today, though, I think you can still find some of your favorites from this Minnesota State Edition, that includes some stations in North Dakota, something we don't see much of in our later issues.
