Dan's Old-Time Radio Corner - Boston Blackie
He first appeared as a jewel thief in a pulp magazine in 1914, then he showed up in the silent movies, then in the talkies, and then on the radio. Finally, he had his own TV show in the early 1950s.
I'm talking about Boston Blackie.
He was played in the movies and initially on the radio by Chester Morris, but Richard Kollmar (husband of Dorothy Kilgallen) took over the radio role the second year and held it until the show went off the air in 1950.
This episode, Murder With an Alibi, originally aired on March 5, 1946.
