Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar debuted in 1948 and endured for 14 years as one of the most popular programs of latter day radio drama. In fact, it became the last network drama when it ultimately signed off the air in 1962.
An eminently appealing character, Dollar was pragmatic, flirtatious, and sympathetic (to a point) - better at reserving judgment than he was at restraining his impulses. This 10 CD set brings you the voices of all eight men who took on the role of "America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator" - from the well known to the obscure - including the two actors who only appeared in audition recordings.
Featured here are Dick Powell, Charles Russell, Edmund O'Brien, John Lund, Gerald Mohr, Bob Bailey, Bob Readick, and Mandel Kramer (who had the distinction of being the very last leading man in a network radio drama).
This collection includes 27 digitally remastered episodes, plus a Program Guide by William Nadel featuring background information and photos about the series.
