Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Pinky Tomlin was a genuine radio novelty star whose hit 'The Object of My Affection' got him this contract role—essentially 1935 influencer casting.
Made during the brief 1934-35 window before strict Hays Code enforcement, it still shows gambling and loose women with surprising casualness.
