Philip Marlowe "The Face to Forget" 6/14/50 Oldtime Radio Crime Drama
The Adventures of Philip Marlowe came to Radio in the Summer of 1947 as a Pepsodent Program replacement for their wildly popular show starring Bob Hope and his ensemble. Both CBS and Pepsodent promoted the first nine programs to the maximum extent.The Pepsodent Program's time slot nice and cozy for Bob Hope's return in The Fall of 1947. Indeed, the fact that Van Heflin got far greater billing than Raymond Chandler himself, demonstrates the relative celebrity of the two diverse talents for their time.

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!

Parley Bear (who plays the blabber box) played Mayor Stoner on The Andy Griffith Show and Chester on the radio version of Gunsmoke. He a has appeared together with Howard McNear on other shows like Suspense. Howard played Floyd the barber on Andy Griffith and 'Doc' on Gunsmoke.

Who needs tv, radio is better. Other than Bogart, Mohr is the best. The BBC series of the 70s is completely unbelievable.

But it's not Van Heflin playing Marlowel I's GERALD MOHR -- a very good actor seen often in the early days of TV, but never a "Big Star." His voice was perfect for the part of Marlowe -- better than Heflin's to tell the truth.

He also looked perfect for the part. Too bad he never got the chance to play him in the movies or on television.

Van Heflin did play Marlowe for the pilot didn't he?
