What happens

Here's How is an early American television program which aired in 1946 on New York City television station WABD, which later that year became flagship station of the DuMont Television Network. The program was sponsored by Super Suds. An early experiment in television programming, segments in one of the episodes included a demonstration on how to clean windows, a segment on how a woman was chosen as model of the year, and a slapstick "chef satire". It was produced by Al Foster. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
