Adventures of Frank Race Old Time Radio Program
The Adventures of Frank Race was an adventure serial syndicated by Bruce Eells Productions. The 30-minute program's first East Coast broadcast was 1949, and the show ran 43 episodes. Because it was syndicated, it aired on different stations on different days. For instance, in New York City, the first episode ran on WINS on April 9, 1949. The series was broadcast on the West Coast from 1951-52. Many things were changed during the war; the face of the earth was altered and the people of the Earth changed. Before the war, Frank Race was an attorney, but he traded his law books for the cloak-and-dagger of the OSS. When it was over, his former life was over, too... adventure had become his business! Frank Race mainly investigated international insurance scams around the globe in various exotic locations, making him something of a cross between James Bond and Johnny Dollar. Each episode opened with a one-minute organ theme
and then the following from announcer Art Gilmore. After Tom Collins
played the title role for the first 22 episodes, Paul Dubov took
over the lead role. Tony Barnett portrayed Race's sidekick, Mark
Donovan. Other actors included Jack Kruschen, Wilms Herbert, Lillian
Buyeff and Harry Lang. Text from wikipedia.org
