 Movie star Alan Ladd played Dan Holiday, retired newspaperman turned fiction writer and adventurer extraordinaire. To gain ideas for his books, Holiday placed an ad in the Star-Times newspaper: "Adventure wanted—will go anywhere, do anything—Box 13." It wasn’t long before his Box 13 became jammed with adventures galore.Holiday always had more adventure than he had originally sought because those who responded to his ad never revealed all of their glorious, unusual, and sometimes sinister details until they met in person and the adventure had already begun. Sylvia Picker played Holiday’s scatterbrained secretary, Suzy. Suzy added touches of humor to the mystery-adventure and nail-biting storylines.Box 13 was produced by Mayfair Productions, a company run by Alan Ladd and Richard Sandville. The name came from Mayfair Restaurant, which Ladd and Sandville owned during World War II. In addition to producing Box 13, Ladd also wrote some of the scripts.Episodes include:The First LetterInsurance FraudBlackmail Is MurderActor’s AlibiExtra, ExtraShanghaiedShort AssignmentDouble MothersBook of PoemsThe Great TorinoSuicide or MurderTriple Cross

 Created by Irving Brecher, The Life of Riley starred William Bendix as Brooklyn-born Chester A. Riley, a family man who worked as a wing riveter at the fictional Cunningham Aircraft plant in California. The stories were usually set at home, where Riley would cheerfully disrupt life with his malapropisms and ill-timed intervention into minor problems. His stock answer to every turn of fate became a popular catch phrase: "What a revoltin’ development this is!" Trouble usually arose when Riley received bad information from his coworker, Jim Gillis.Paula Winslowe played Riley’s wife, Peg; John Brown doubled as undertaker "Digger" O’Dell and Jim Gillis; Tommy Cook, Bobby Ellis, and Scotty Beckett each played the role of Riley’s son, Junior; and Sharon Douglas played the Riley’s daughter, Babs. Alan Reed, the voice of Fred Flintstone, played multiple characters, including Riley’s boss, Mr. Stevenson, as well as Peg’s father.The program aired on radio from 1944 until 1951, making a successful transition to television in 1949. Due to a contract dispute, Bendix couldn’t initially play Riley on television, so the role went to Jackie Gleason. In 1953 Bendix was free to star as Riley on the small screen and continued with it until 1958.Episodes include:"Cissio’s Marriage""Riley the Dogcatcher""Riley Fixes Dinner for Mother’s Day""Fish Story""The Boss’ Son-in-Law""The Halloween Show: Haunted House""Big Football Bet""Riley’s Mash Note at Night School""Wedding Anniversary""Five Dollars Is Missing""Gambling Does Not Pay""Riley Thinks He’s Promoted"

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 There were several newspaper-based dramas during radio’s golden age, including Box 13, Let George Do It, and Casey, Crime Photographer, but Night Beat was a cut above. It was the story of Randy Stone, hard-nosed Chicago Star newsman, and his quest for the human-interest story behind the headlines. It starred Frank Lovejoy as Stone, who came to vivid life thanks to expert scripts by Russell Hughes, E. Jack Neuman, John Michael Hayes (who would later write the Hitchcock film classics To Catch a Thief and Rear Window), and Larry Marcus.Lovejoy’s distinctive voice and approach to the role, combined with top performances by veteran radio actors, gave Night Beat a noir style that listeners loved. The stories ran the gamut from lighthearted to tragic, and through it all, Randy Stone would narrate the story and comment on it from beginning to end—often with a hard-edged cynicism. Night Beat aired on NBC Radio from 1950 to 1952. This collection features twelve episodes.Episodes include"Zero""The Night Is a Weapon""The Girl in the Park""A World All His Own""Number 13""Am I My Brother’s Keeper?""Flowers on the Water""The Man Who Claimed to Be Dead""I Know Your Secret""Tong War""Mentallo, the Mental Marvel""The Elevator Caper"

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Raymond Chandler’s celebrated hard-boiled private eye, Philip Marlowe, made his radio debut in 1945 on the Lux Radio Theatre with "Murder, My Sweet," starring Dick Powell. Two years later, NBC brought the character to the air in his own weekly series starring Van Heflin, The New Adventures of Philip Marlowe. A summer replacement for The Bob Hope Show, the series was short-lived, ending September 9, 1947. CBS revived it in 1948 with The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, starring Gerald Mohr. With producer/director Norman MacDonnell at the helm, the series captured the largest audience in radio by 1949. Scripts were by Gene Levitt, Robert Mitchell, Mel Dinelli, and Kathleen Hite. While Chandler’s distinctive similes were largely lacking, the strong, dry, sarcastic narration was there, and the way Mohr delivered his lines made you forget they weren’t written by Chandler. Supporting Mohr were radio’s best, including Howard McNear, Parley Baer, Lawrence Dobkin, Virginia Gregg, and Lou Krugman. One of the best detective shows on the air at the time, it lasted until 1951.Episodes include "The Eager Witness," "The Bum’s Rush," "The High-Collared Cape," "The Sea Horse Jockey," "The Hiding Place," "The Cloak of Kamehameha," "The Fox’s Tail," "The Bedside Manners," "The Uneasy Head," "The Face to Forget," "The Gold Cobra," and "The Last Wish."

 Broadway Is My Beat was a dark, gritty radio crime drama that ran on CBS from 1949 until 1954. The series was originally broadcast from New York with Anthony Ross portraying Times Square Police Detective Danny Clover. Produced by Lester Gottlieb, it was directed by John Dietz. But by the thirteenth episode, the series moved to Hollywood (still set in NYC) with producer Elliott Lewis directing a new cast in scripts by Morton Fine and David Friedkin (the duo that would later write and develop TV’s popular secret-agent series I Spy). The re-creation of Manhattan’s rich, aural tapestry required the talents of three sound effects artists. The opening theme of "I’ll Take Manhattan" introduced Detective Danny Clover (now played by Larry Thor) as a hardened New York City cop who worked homicide "from Times Square to Columbus Circle—the gaudiest, the most violent, the lonesomest mile in the world." Clover narrated tales of the Great White Way to the music of Wilbur Hatch and Alexander Courage.

Welles followed the practice followed by most stage actors: he played roles in hundreds of radio dramas produced by advertising agencies and the radio networks.After creating a minor panic among radio listeners with his 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast, Welles attracted the attention of a movie studio that offered the actor the spotlights of tinsel town—resulting in Citizen Kane.Making the move to California, Welles continued to appear on radio programs, became established as a Hollywood actor, and made numerous guest appearances on variety, comedy, and dramatic programs. In 1941 and again in 1946, he starred in a chilling story titled "The Hitch-Hiker," scripted by Lucille Fletcher, which thirteen years later was adapted into a television episode of The Twilight Zone.In the early 1950s, when Welles was temporarily blacklisted, he moved to England and narrated the radio program The Black Museum and starred in The Lives of Harry Lime, a prequel to the classic The Third Man, now regarded as one of the 100 best movies ever made.In this collection: The Mercury Theatre on the Air: "Three Short Stories"The Campbell Playhouse: "Mutiny on the Bounty"Suspense: "The Marvelous Barastro"The Black Museum: "The Champagne Glass"The Lux Radio Theatre: "The Break of Hearts"This Is My Best: "Diamond as Big as the Ritz"The Mercury Summer Theatre: "The Hitchhiker"The Lives of Harry Lime: "Art Is Long and Lime Is Fleeting"The Lives of Harry Lime: "In Pursuit of a Ghost"

This led into the standard opening, followed by the week’s tale of adventure. Often, incompetent police were unable to solve the mysteries without his help.Waring was billed on radio as a freelance detective who was "always ready with a hand for oppressed men and an eye for repressed women." Berry Kroeger, James Meighan, Les Tremayne, Les Damon, and George Petrie portrayed "The Falcon" during its radio run.The twelve episodes included here, which aired in 1950 and 1951, are "The Case of the Carved Ham," "The Case of the Gangster’s Girl," "The Case of the Mighty Muscle," "The Case of the Invisible Thug," "The Case of the Raw Deal," "The Case of the Harried Husband," "The Case of the Stooge’s Errand," "The Case of the Puzzling Pinup," "The Case of the Widow’s Gorilla," "The Case of the Rich Racketeer," "The Case of the Double Exposure," and "The Case of the Disappearing Doll."

 Rogue’s Gallery was an old-time radio program starring Dick Powell as Richard Rogue, a private detective who trailed luscious blondes, protected witnesses, and did whatever else detectives do to make a living. What set this show apart from others in the genre was that midway through every episode, Rogue would invariably end up getting knocked out and spending his dream-time in acerbic conversation on Cloud 8 with his subconscious self—named Eugor—"Rogue" spelled backwards. The presence of the alter ego served to give Rogue enough information for his final deduction. Eugor would appear cackling like the host of The Hermit’s Cave while imparting some vital information our hero had overlooked. Rogue would then awaken with a vague idea of what to do next. Directed by Dee Englebach, with music by Leith Stevens, Rogue’s Gallery employed radio’s best supporting actors including: Lou Merrill, Gerald Mohr, Gloria Blondell, Tony Barrett, Lurene Tuttle, and Peter Leeds. Dick Powell left the series in 1946 and would later star in Richard Diamond, Private Detective. Rogue’s Gallery continued on until 1952 starring Barry Sullivan and later Paul Stewart.Rogue’s Gallery, Vol. 1 features the following twelve episodes:"Blondes Prefer Gentlemen" (10/18/1945)"Murder with Muriel" (10/25/1945)"Little Drops of Rain" (11/8/1945)"Lovely Little Old Lady" (11/29/1945)"Triangle of Death" (2/21/1946)"A Fortune in Furs" (12/20/1945)"The Stark McVey Case" a.k.a.

She was the wacky wife making life difficult for her loving but exasperated husband Ricky Ricardo, played by Ball’s real-life husband Desi Arnaz. Long before I Love Lucy, Ball worked her way up Hollywood’s ladder, appearing in films and many radio shows, including dramatic roles in which she could show her acting chops.In the summer of 1948, she accepted the role of Liz Cooper, a zany housewife who found herself facing comical situations, in the radio comedy My Favorite Husband. In the series, Liz Cooper’s husband George Cooper was played by veteran actor Richard Denning. But Lucille Ball also acted in episodes of the radio mystery Suspense and in Lux Radio Theatre’s adaptation of Broadway plays.

 Damon Runyon was a newspaperman and writer. He was best known for his short stories celebrating the world of New York City’s Broadway that grew out of the Prohibition era. He created a little world of characters that live on even today in such classic movies as Little Miss Marker and Guys and Dolls, both based on Runyon’s stories.Actor Alan Ladd’s Mayfair Productions brought Runyon’s short stories to radio in the early 1950s. Each episode of The Damon Runyon Theatre is told through the eyes of a hoodlum with a heart of gold named "Broadway," who takes the listener inside the world of some of the Big Apple’s toughest yet most charming perpetrators. Broadway and the many thugs, touts, dames, and palookas he encounters speak in a thick present-tense Brooklynese that is a delight for the listener to hear.John Brown played Broadway, and the supporting casts were a who’s who of radio, including William Conrad, Alan Reed, Frank Lovejoy, Sheldon Leonard, Hans Conreid, Anne Whitfield, and Ed Begley. The series made a brief transition to television.Included here are the following episodes, which aired from October 1950 to January 1951:"The Hottest Guy in the World""All Horseplayers Die Broke""Princess O’Hara""For a Pal""A Piece of Pie""Barbecue""The Brain Goes Home""Hold ’Em Yale""Old Em’s Kentucky Home""Blood Pressure""Lonely Heart""Broadway Complex"
