Family Skeleton

Family Skeleton is an American old-time radio serial drama, "the story of a girl with a dark past and highly uncertain future." It was broadcast on CBS from June 8, 1953, to March 5, 1954.
"Family Skeleton" focused on Sara Ann Spence and her problems. She became the "family skeleton" because she arrived at her home pregnant "with her marriage license obliterated by bloodstains" and could not prove her marital status. The sponsors were Sweetheart Soap, Prom Home Permanent and Toni Creme Rinse.
