Our Krazy Kulture is a CafePress T-Shirt and Gift Shop, selling early to mid-20th century designs on T-Shirts, posters, buttons, magnets, trinket boxes, etc. Save up to 30% by shopping directly from the store (as opposed to the CafePress marketplace.)
CafePress recently set it’s own marketplace prices and lowered the amount of commission that the shopkeepers receive. In many cases, the marketplace prices are now higher than when shopkeepers were allowed to set their own prices. (Shopkeepers are still allowed to set thier own prices in their CafePress stores, but not in the CafePress marketplace.)
For instance, at the time of this writing, if you buy a white T-Shirt from one of my shops, you’ll pay $17.99. The same shirt, bought in the marketplace, will cost you $22.00.
Many shopkeepers are very upset in this change of CafePress policy, so if you are a CafePress customer who has used the marketplace in the past, it will likely save you money to pre-shop the marketplace first, find out the name of the shops selling your desired merchandise, and then order straight from the shopkeeper’s shops. Not only will you save money in most cases, you will also be assuring that the mark-up/commission goes to the designer and not to CafePress, as they are already making their money on merchandise blanks.

In 1932, the Buck Rogers radio program, notable as the first science fiction show on radio, hit the airwaves. It was broadcast four times a week for 15 years, from 1932 through 1947.
The radio show again related the story of our hero Buck finding himself in the 25th Century. Actors Matt Crowley, Curtis Arnall, Carl Frank and John Larkin all voiced him at various times. The beautiful and strong-willed Wilma Deering was portrayed by Adele Ronson, and the brilliant scientist-inventor Dr. Huer was played by Edgar Stehli.
The radio series was produced and directed by Carlo De Angelo and later by Jack Johnstone. In 1988, Johnstone recalled how he worked with the sound effects of Ora Nichols to produce the sound of the rockets by using an air-conditioning vent (Read more)

Joe Penner (11 November 1904 — 10 January 1941), was a Hungarian-born American 1930s-era vaudeville, radio and film comedian. He was born Pintér József in Nagybecskerek, Hungary (today Serbia). He passed through Ellis Island as a child when his family emigrated to New York City. Historians also believe that he got trampled by an elephant at a very young age, resulting in lifelong scars all over his body.
He was launched on his successful radio career by Rudy Vallée, appearances which led to his own Sunday evening half-hour, The Baker’s Broadcast, which began on the Blue Network October 8, 1933. Penner was a zany comic, noted for his famed catchphrase, “Wanna buy a duck?”, and his low hyuck-hyuck laugh. Penner’s other memorable catchphrase, often triggered by someone else’s double entendre remark, was, “You naaaasss-ty man!” He was voted radio’s top comedian in 1934, but a 1935 dispute with the ad agency over the show’s format resulted in Penner quitting The Baker’s Broadcast on June 30, 1935. A year later, he returned with The Joe Penner Show which began airing October 4, 1936 on CBS, sponsored by Cocomalt. (Read more)
