Who are all the people in that Lucky Strike Christmas ad?

I recognize Jack, Mary, Phil, Rochester, Don, and Dennis, but not the others. Are they the stars of another LS-sponsored program?

I assume you're referring to the ad that reads "The Whole Lucky Strike Gang wishes you a Happy Christmas and a Lucky New Year." According to goantiques.com (http://www.goantiques.com/detail,lucky- ... 51931.html) the other people pictured in the ad were Robert Montgomery, Raymond Scott, Eileen Wilson, Snooky Lanson, Dorothy Collins and Clifton Fadiman.

Thanks for the replies. I guess that's the Raymond Scott, of "Powerhouse" fame?

Yup. If I recall, he was married to Dorothy Collins.
