Summary
Abbott and Costello, “Christmas Shopping for Lou’s Girlfriend,” originally broadcast December 14, 1944. With Christmas near, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello head downtown as Lou tries to stretch his limited gift budget for Ruby Poole.

The holiday shopping trip brings them through a crowded streetcar and into Bingles Department Store, where familiar misunderstandings involve Lou’s brother Sebastian and manager Kitzel. The NBC broadcast also features Connie Haines singing “The Trolley Song” and music by Freddie Rich and his orchestra.

Old Time Comedy Radio presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
