- Note that according to an article in the New York Times, the Telephone Hour broadcasts switched their point of origin from Carnegie Hall to a studio in the RCA Building at Rockefeller Center beginning on October 7, 1957. The article also states, "For several years the concerts had been conducted at Carnegie Hall at the request of the sponsor." The booking ledger confirms this change, since bookings subsequent to July 1, 1957 are marked "resale", indicating that the bookings had been released for resale.
The New York Public Library holds the Bell Telephone Hour Collection of Sound Recordings, 1940-1968; the finding aid contains detailed records of each broadcast <a rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external" href="https://archives.nypl.org/rha/20502">(link to finding aid)</a>.
