One of the greats. Sponsored by "Planter's High Hat Peanut Oil" Sheyndele
was a circuit riding Lady Cantor who performed regularly on WEVD and WDAS in
Philly . Sadly, for all of her prolific performing there are no surviving
examples of her radio work. Ditto Goldie Mae Stiner who was billed as "The
Only Colored Lady Cantor in America"!
