Dang, that's pretty old school, and a pretty interesting find as well! It's neat seeing the pictures of all of them too, I can't imagine how long that must've taken.

I couldn't find any pictures of Junior O'Day, though. He played the Professor's son in episode two. I recall finding some great Julian Noa pics on the New York Public Library site, so I went to New York and the guys at the Library were kind enough to lend me some pics of a very young Julian Noa taken circa 1900s. I posted the other Julian Noa pics in the Picture Hunters section. This radio show was one of longest running radio shows of all time, reaching a total of 1200 episodes (and most of them have survived the tests of time). The show had three runs... The syndicated run (1940-1942): All the episodes of this run have survived. The transcription disks for the first 27 episodes have been cleaned up, restored and remastered by the Smithsonian Historical Performances crew. The Mutual run (1942-1949): The most famous run. Not all of the episodes have survived, leaving story arcs like the new origin story which they made for the Mutual version incomplete, but a lot of the most acclaimed sagas like the Batman crossover story arcs and the Atom Man story arc have survived. The ABC run (1949-1951): I'm not sure if all the episodes of this run have survived, but I have heard a few of them. Last edited by Starscreamsfan; 03-29-2015 at 06:05 PM. |
