    The Cinnamon Bear is an old-time radio program produced by Transco (Transcription Company of America), based in Hollywood, California. The series was specifically designed to be listened to six days a week between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
    An original Lipman-Wolfe & Company newspaper ad from the Portland Oregon Journal, November 25, 1937 read:
    "Introducing Paddy O'Cinnamon, Santa Claus's right-hand man! Meet him with Santa in Toyland at Lipman's... and don't miss his exciting adventures with Judy and Jimmy (two of the nicest playmates you could ever want). and some nights you'll be so anxious to hear how they got the Silver Star back from the wicked Crazyquilt Dragon that you'll listen twice! And here's a secret... the Cinnamon Bear is just as excited about meeting you as he can be."
    The story focused on Judy and Jimmy Barton who go to the enchanted world of Maybeland to recover their missing Silver Star that belongs on their Christmas tree. Helping on the search is the Cinnamon Bear, a stuffed bear with shoe-button eyes and a green ribbon around his neck. They meet other memorable characters during their quest, including the Crazy Quilt Dragon (who repeatedly tries to take the star for himself), the Wintergreen Witch, Fe Fo the Giant and Santa Claus.
    Episodes began at Thanksgiving and ended at Christmas, with one episode airing each night.
    The radio show proved to be so popular that the Metropolitan Washington Old-Time Radio Club says it has been broadcast by a station somewhere in the world every year during the holidays, even today.
    Many malls had a Cinnamon Bear that children would tell what they wanted for gifts instead of a Santa, and he would show up in Christmas parades. The Cinnamon Bear has remained especially popular in Portland, Oregon, which was often cited as a "Cinnamon Bear hotspot."
    WDOR-FM radio in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin has broadcast The Cinnamon Bear for decades; airing episodes each day at 4pm in the weeks before Christmas
    WVIZ-DT9 in Cleveland, Ohio broadcasts The Cinnamon Bear every year from Thanksgiving until Christmas.
