"Miracle on Third Avenue" was the title of the "Duffy's Tavern" Christmas show on December 22, 1948. Starring Ed Gardner as Archie with guest star Jeff Chandler. Duffy's Tavern was located on 3rd Avenue and 23rd Street in NYC. (Factious address)... Archie destroys the English language with malaprops with almost every sentence that comes out of his mouth... so be sure to listen for them because the come fast and furious. Others heard in the show are Charlie Cantor as Clifton Finnegan, Alan Reed as Clancy the Cop, and Eddie Green as the waiter... Eddie. Miss Duffy is the tavern owner's daughter. I believe Shirley Booth plays that role. This show is a mixture of comedy and the Christmas spirit... that Archie is lacking at start of the show, but gets into it at the end. Nice Christmas show.
