Philip Marlowe "The Open Window" 10/8/49 Gerald Mohr Oldtime Radio Noir Crime Drama

The Adventures of Philip Marlowe "The Open Window" 10/8/49 Oldtime Radio Noir Crime Drama
"The Adventures of Philip Marlowe" was mostly sustained throughout its two-year run (except for a brief sponsorship by Ford Motors in 1950), and while it had difficulty landing an "angel" to pay its bills, it did have a devoted fan in CBS patriarch William Paley. (Paley pressed upon both Macdonnell and CBS' director of programming Harry Ackerman to create a "Philip Marlowe in the old west," a request that was nurtured for several years before finally giving birth to "Gunsmoke" in 1952.) After returning to CBS for a brief summer run in 1951, Philip Marlowe folded up his radio tent.

Thx to everyone for the support! : ) I am working hard behind the scenes searching for more vintage high quality material to post! I have recently monetized this channel with "fan funding" which will help in my efforts to add more pre-50's entertainment and content on a regular basis!

Gerald Mohr was fantastic in these. The sound quality here is excellent too. I listen to all of them I can.

There seems to be an added delay/pseudo-stereo effect.

Gerald Mohr was a very versatile talent, but when he landed Phillip Marlowe, he left his indelible mark on the Golden Age of radio.

@rick, well put and I heartily agree. Since I gave up Comcast way overpriced TV, the OTR has provided me great compensation.
