Yes Jim the National Lum and Abner Society has held a convention honoring these two gents from Pine Ridge, Arkansas since 1984!
The NLAS has requested that ONE AND ALL come and enjoy a weekend in a small town that celebrates two of radio's funniest men. There will be skits, interviews, autographs and a group visit to the ONLY museum dedicated to an OTR show! So please you all come and we can all meet at the Jot'em Down Store in Pine Ridge and say howdy to Lum and Abner! |

I am looking to contact Mary Lee Robb who has connections to the Lum and Abner show. She is a distant relative and I have been trying to get in touch with her since early this year. Do you know if she would be coming? I understand that she has been to conventions before? Any help would be appreciated or the information passed on to her.
Thanking you in advance. Janice Bane Lambert, Illinois |
