The Great Gildersleeve presents “Engagement Announcement - Bronco’s Family,” originally broadcast January 4, 1950. Catalogs differ on its numbering, listing it as episode 346 or 348. Harold Peary stars as Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve, with Mary Lee Robb as Marjorie and Richard Crenna as Bronco Thompson. Following Marjorie and Bronco’s engagement, the Summerfield household prepares a photograph and copy for the local newspaper announcement. But Gildersleeve becomes especially concerned with making the proper impression on Bronco’s art-conscious parents, turning a family milestone into a typically comic social challenge. The Great Gildersleeve 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.
