“Graphically, it was unthinkable to use the line drawing to draw a vignette. As soon as the censor saw a straight line, he crossed it out saying excitedly that he was a virile member. Of course, it was not allowed to make too many curves because they were associated with the ladies ».

In Spain, legally, the censorship disappears with the Royal Decree Law of April 1, 1977, which regulates freedom of expression in print media (on October 6 of that same year it would be extended to radio and television) although prohibitions are maintained on contents that undermine the Royal Family, the unit of Spain or the Armed Forces. Also, remember that “the administrative seizure of graphic or sound, obscene or pornographic printed matter may be decreed”.

Bud Collyer (born Clayton Johnson Heermance Jr., June 18, 1908 – September 8, 1969) was an American radio actor/announcer who became one of the nation’s first major television game show stars. He is best remembered for his work as the first host of the TV game shows Beat the Clock and To Tell the Truth, but he was also famous in the roles of Clark Kent/Superman on radio and in animated cartoons, initially in theatrical short subjects and later on television.
Collyer’s best-remembered radio starring role began in early 1940 in The Adventures of Superman on the Mutual Broadcasting System, a role he also performed in the subsequent Superman cartoons. Collyer supplied the voices of both Superman and his alter ego Clark Kent, opposite radio actress Joan Alexander as Lois Lane. Every Superman episode featured a scene in which Clark Kent changed into his Superman costume, an effect which Collyer conveyed by shifting voices while speaking the phrase “This is (or “looks like”) a job for Superman!” his voice always dropping when becoming Superman.
In 1966, Collyer reprised his role as the voice of Superman in the Filmation animated television series The New Adventures of Superman, reuniting him with radio vis-à-vis Joan Alexander.

Think what it means to be a swan
Think what it means to be a swan: to glide like a dream on the smooth surface of the lake, and never go to the shore. On dry land, where ordinary people walk, the swan is awkward, even ridiculous. When she waddles up the bank she painfully resembles a different kind of bird: A goose.
And there she must stay, out on the lake: silent, white, majestic. Be a bird, but never fly. Cool indifference to the staring crowds along the bank.
