Somebody out there in radioland must live near Checkerboard Square.  How
about finding the address/telephone number of the Ralston Purina Company
and some of us can track down a "suit" that is in charge of Tom Mix and
see just where they do stand.

So everybody back to their respective corners.  When we find the "suit"
we'll toss them into the ring and we can chew them up.  How's that for
flying metaphors?

In the early '70s I remember hearing a series called "The Devil and [removed],"
introduced each week by Arch Oboler. I believe these were old "Lights Out!"
broadcasts with new introductions by Oboler. Am I correct? Are any of these
"Devil and Mr. O" available on tape?

Can anyone tell me when the last "Duffy's Tavern" aired and when Ed Gardner
died?

Thanks,

Enough, already.  If you two want to continue to duke it out, how
about taking it outside?  You have each other's e-mail addresses,
so go to it face-to-face (or machine-to-machine).  Leave the rest
of us out of it, and stop tying up bandwidth with what has become
a personal flameout.  Please.

For that matter Marty (and Bruce) does anyone *know* that Ralston is
sitting on the old Tom Mix shows?  If I recall correctly, this was a rumor. 
Before we get too hot under the collar and spend too much more time,
let's make sure we're cursing them for something they're actually guilty of
(and BTW Marty, I agree with you, even though I'd like to see all shows
available).

Per Ross's comment about British radio in #370

Count me among the many fans of British radio, especially the Goon Shows.
There are lots of Goon Shows in circulation - PBS Radio broadcast many of
them, and some are available commercially on CDs and cassettes. I got my
cassettes and CDs in Australia, but I think they are available here, too.  I
agree - they are terrific.

You'll probably find more information than you ever could want from:

Hi! My name is Bruce Rosenberger. As suggested, I'm here to tell you a bit
about myself. I'm 40 years old, married, with three boys ages 7,12 and 14. My
hobbies include old time radio, stereo (3-d) photography, and classic comic
strips/comic books. ( My father always told me I was born 40 years late!) The
only one of these subjects that I will claim any real expertise in is comic
strip/comic books. I've been actively collecting radio shows for about 5-6
years and manage to attend the FOTR convention every year where I go on a
buying frenzy (just ask Ed Carr!) and get my yearly dose of OTR comraderie.
Now I can do it every evening when I download this forum!

                                                     Thanks!!!

Oh, by the way, anyone know where i can get the BBC cd's with the comic book
adaptations of Spidernan and Judge Dredd? (Or any [removed]) I'm having
trouble locating them here in PA.

                                                      Thanks again,  
                                                              Bruce

Does anyone have the following programs - or remember seeing them in
someone's catalog? 

While it's likely some have been lost forever, some, particularly the first

Shield (sometimes known as LeRoy Shield or Shields).

Special program in tribute to Babe Ruth

Union Pacific Railroad "Your America" - May 6, 1944
Observance of the 10th anniversary of America's first streamlined train.

The Catholic Hour - "20th Anniversary of Catholic Hour" - March 5, 1950

OTHER NEEDS:

Hot Copy - premiered October 4, 1941

1932-1933
Iodent Program - NBC

Armour & Co - from March 17, 1933 to July 26, 1935

Dear OTR: By way of introduction, let me say that I am a new OTR fan
([removed] 3 years anyway), and love to read and listen to all I can about
OTR. My wife, Barbara, and I listen nightly to When Radio Was, and have a
small (but growing) collection of tapes. 

I am interested in many things, but especially in modern-day attempts to
recreate OTR (which I guess include new audio dramatizations such as those
for Star Trek, Louis L'Amour, etc.). Any information I could gather would be
great.

I have written for many magazines (nothing about radio, though)--fiction and
non-fiction. I've also written a couple of books and am hard-at-work on a
novel. My *dream* is to produce a new radio show along the lines of ER or
Babylon 5 for the ears (I [removed]'s a huge difference between those 2,
but both lend themselves well to radio and The Mind's Eye). 

Guess that's [removed], favorite shows include Johnny Dollar, The Shadow, Nick
Diamond,  Nero Wolfe, Gunsmoke and Fibber McGee and Molly. Prefer full
orchestration (not much of a fan of the mighty Wurlitzer). Thanks!--ldb

One of my favorite versions of this song was sung by Oliver Hardy just
before he fell over his head into the hole in the stream they were crossing
in Laurel and Hardy's "Way Out West." It is what always comes to mind
whenever I am reminded of the song.
All I remember of Arthur Godfrey was "Ha-why-ah, ha-why-ah," and "I Don't
Want Her, You Can Have Her, She's Too Fat For Me," a wonderful sentiment, to
be sure.

**********************************************************
That's why I wanted the information. I really enjoy looking at (and
sometimes buying) the stuff I used to have, or wished I had gotten at the time.
I also get "Antique Trader," "Baby Boomer Collectibles," and "Collectibles
Magazine" for the very same reasons.
It sounds like "Toy Shop" is a magazine that I would really like.
I, myself, like the OTR and OTV, but I also like the stuff that goes with
it- premiums, toys, books, and so on, it just adds the right "ambiance!":-)
