First neighborhood showings of “Miracle On 34th Street” started on July 16th, 1947, following its premiere engagement in June at the Roxy Theatre (with stage revue).
“The Brasher Doubloon,” supporting feature to “Miracle On 34th Street,” had also debuted at the Roxy Theatre, but mainly to fill the gaps between an ultra-rare New York stage booking for comedy superstar Jack Benny. The limited engagement was for two weeks only, with Benny performing with most of the cast of his top-rated radio program, including Phil Harris and Eddie “Rochester” Anderson.
