Close, Scott: JOHNNY DOLLAR, with SUSPENSE, was among the
last broadcasts on CBS Radio as a source of drama, with the
last episodes of both broadcast on 9/30/62 (drama was off
that network until the revival of sorts with THE CBS RADIO
MYSTERY THEATER in 1973, and, eventually, THE SEARS RADIO
THEATER in 1979). TM
-----Original Message----- From: Scott Owen [mailto:
scottaowen@hotmail.com] Johnny Dollar's expense account
framing device was so radio specific that the show stayed on
the airwaves well after virtually every other radio
drama
had died or migrated to TV. I think the show may have lasted
as late as 1964.
