OLD TIME RADIO - CD 91

This
series went on the air on July 7, 1943 and lasted until April
22, 1955. A total of 431 episodes were broadcast.
Casey, Crime Photographer had more history than substance. It
was a B-grade radio detective on a par perhaps with The Falcon,
better than Mr Keen, Tracer of Lost Persons, but lacking the
style and polish of The Adventures of Sam Spade.
Originally appearing in the pages of Black Mask, under the
watchful eyes of then-editor Joseph Shaw, Flashgun Casey was the
originally fast-talking crime photographer, a big, hot-tempered
Boston Mick with a gift for gab and a nose for trouble. No
"artiste", Casey kept a bottle of hooch and a .38 in his desk
drawer, and boasted of being able to put a "slug where he aimed"
and having "two big fists he knew how to use". He appeared in
several short stories in the pulps and several novels.
Casey, whose first name was never revealed, was the major crime
photographer at the fictional Morning Express newspaper. With
the help of reporter Ann Williams, he tracked down criminals and
solved numerous crimes on this popular mystery-adventure series.
Often a picture snapped at a crime scene led Casey to play
detective.
Casey and Ann often enlisted the aid their police cheif friend,
Captain Logan during each week's half-hour episode. In between
assighments, crime investigators Casey and Ann went to their
favorite tavern, 'The Blue Note', and discussed their adventures
with their bartender friend Ethelbert. There the crowd was
friendly and the music was more than a backdrop. The jazz piano
belonged to Herman Chittison, Matt Crowley and Staats Cotsworth
played Casey, with the latter playing the role longer: Alice
Reinheart, Betty Furness, Jone Allison, Lesley Woods, and Jan
Miner (best remembered in the role) played Ann at different
times.
Jackson Beck and Bernard Lenrow were heard as Captian Logan and
John Gibson played Ethelbert.
Sponsors included Anchor-Hocking glass, Toni home permanet, Toni
Creme Shampoo and Philip Morris cigarettes.
