Foodini the Great

"Foodini the Great" was a very early CBS children's television show.

This was a 15 minute puppet show that was performed live at 6:30pm Monday-Friday from August 23 1948 to June 23 1951.

The show was originally called "The Adventures of Lucky Pup", but Foodini the magician and his assistant Pinhead proved tobe so popular the show was renamed.

There are also Foodini comic books, records, greeting cards, toys, and magic sets.

The comic books are named "The Great Foodini", "Adventures of Foodini the Great", and "Pinhead and Foodini".

Currently, there's also a Yahoo! fan club, and several tribute websites.
