Little Orphan Annie – Daddy Warbucks Hears Radio Signals. ep1539, 1936

The image is a colorful, minimalist illustration of a dog with a light green head, white body, and black spots. The dog's ears are dark red, its nose is black, and its tongue is red, hanging out to one side. It has large, round white eyes with a black dot in the center. The dog is sitting upright with a lifted paw and a curved black tail. The background is solid blue.

After being made queen and king of the island, Annie and Joe discover their newly awarded robes are full of diamonds. Despite the value, they aren’t worth as much in the moment as a loaf of bread. How is the radio transmitter coming along? Mr Wilcox gives a report, and that signal had been transmitted.

Elsewhere, far across the ocean, Daddy Warbucks is on hand to listen to a strange radio signal that has been sent out at regular intervals over the past few days. Is the signal anything significant?

Though his advisors try to be practical, and keep his hopes from being crushed if it turns out to be nothing, radio men from other stations confirm the radio signals. Can they get a range, or make any guess at the direction?
