Forst heard these shows on Stan Freeberg's 'old time radio' show in the 1980s and tape recorded them...tho they didnt come often ( Stan played a lot of 'suspense' shows, which were also fine). This os one of the best ones, with Jack ( 'Dragnet') Webb. My favorites are 'Last will and nursery rhyme', 'The haunted Artist' and the one ( cant think of its name right off) with Barry Kroger ( voice a bit like orson wells) as the letter writer who promises to find out the identity of the man behind box 13 and murder him within 3 days...that is the grimmest one...and Kroger was good in any role, tho not given much work in films ( he had a 'radio face') he was great as the crooked lawyer who meets a grisly end in the Richard Conte-Victor Mature film noir ' Cry of thr city' from 1947.
These are excellent written scripts -varied in plots from one episode to the next - and ably acted by Alan Ladd and cast.
I think so, too, and this BTW, is my favorite episode!
Thanks for posting these fine programs!
As always, top notch
Love Alan Ladd and box 13.
This episode is great. Isn't thug number 2 Jack Webb?
@@tesmusicnewsissues9770 Yes it is Jack Webb! Such a distinctive voice.
Brilliant episode. I absolutely love Box 13, they are marvelous stories. Thanks for your putting it up on youtube :)
That's Jack Webb voice later in the show
This was a great one
One of Box 13's finest!
Thank you!
Winthrop sounds like the crypt keeper ! 🤣
I juat remembered the title of the best of the box 13 episodes, the one with Barry Kroger.---'Find Me, Find Death'..
Agreed!
"You wanted to play dog-eat-dog, now play it!"
Thanks for tuning in.
good actor known in Hollywood as The quite man
