Dupont Chemical company sponsored "The Cavalcade of America" series to try to gain some respect and support from American radio listeners, who were not too enamored with some of the profits that Dupont made producing gunpowder during WW I. The show featured events in American history, dramatizing the positive aspects of the nation's past. The series ran from 1935 to 1953 with top notch historians and writers working on the show scripts. Actors were the best of the best from stage, screen and radio. The shows were not made to churn up adrenaline, but the episodes were interesting and some were amazing. Authors, playwrights, artists, inventors, industrialists are biographed in the series. Many shows dealt with inventions and scientific developments of the past and the then present. This show about Thomas Edison was such a show. He had his "enemies" "Tesla, and others when the fight or AC vs DC was in the wind... but he also contributed a huge amount of scientific inventions and processes.
