Here is a photograph, from NBC-TV, of bandleader Freddy Martin, with his orchestra; the picture is currently for sale on ebay.

The auction also includes a press release about Martin's 1951 NBC television program, which accompanied the picture; it is also seen below.

Mr. Martin's show, which aired weekly, also starred singer Merv Griffin and pianist Murray Arnold.  My mother was a regular guest vocalist on the program.
