Reproduction is prohibited. Talent Contest The amateur talent contest craze was at its height in the s, and Major Bowes stepped in to take advantage of it. At the height of the depression, this popular show made the major a rich man, making two million a year — twice that of Al Jolson , and Jack Benny. Poor folks traveled from all over the country to be on the New York show.
