Description:
New York: Batten, Barton, Durstine and Osborn, 1942. Draft script for the 1942 radio show episode, originally broadcast on May 14, 1942. With a few annotations in manuscript pencil and ink on the front wrapper. The anthology series was part of a campaign by the DuPont chemical corporation to rehabilitate its image following the public exposure of its arms race profiteering during World War I. In lieu of traditional advertising, creative director Roy Durstine proposed that DuPont sponsor "Cavalcade," which integrated the company's slogan ("Better Things For Better Living Through Chemistry") and agenda into its stories of American achievement and inspiration. The show was an early experiment in propagandistic corporate brand-building, virtually unprecedented for a company that had no commercially available products to market to the public. To further promote their clean, humanitarian ideals, DuPont shied away from using attention-grabbing tactics, such as the sound of gunfire, that were popular on… Read More

Description:
N.p.: N.p., 1937. Draft script for the 1937 live radio show, which originally aired on CBS. Copy belonging to interviewee H. Bruce Humberstone, with his manuscript pencil annotations regarding line changes and deletions throughout. Sponsored by General Mills and marketed as the "Gold Medal Hour," the Hollywood in Person radio show was hosted by Art Baker (under the name "Bob Baker the Bisquick Maker") and Louise Roberts, who would drive to studio lots in a motorized live broadcasting studio and interview the Hollywood elite, such as Deanna Durbin, Basil Rathbone, Jesse Lasky, and Ann Sheridan. The show was an early example of tabloid journalism, with a focus on celebrity gossip and candid, unrehearsed disclosures-although, as the existence of this script proves, the interviews were of course meticulously planned beforehand. In this broadcast, Baker interviews director H. Bruce Humberstone and Twentieth Century-Fox contract player Arleen Whelan, an actress Humberstone claimed to have discovered… Read More

Description:
Los Angeles: Jack Stewart and Associates, 1950. Original radio script for "The Dead Are Never Lonely," episode 474 of season 10 (Sept. 25, 1950) of the popular radio program, "Inner Sanctum Mystery." The series aired from January 7, 1941 to October 5, 1952, and was created by producer Himan Brown. A total of 527 episodes were broadcast, most of them now presumed to be lost, including this one. Brief annotations in manuscript ink to a few pages. The anthology series featured mystery and horror stories, and its tongue-in-cheek introductions were in sharp contrast to shows like "Suspense" (1942-1962) and "The Whistler" (1942-1955). Early episodes opened with Raymond Edward Johnson introducing himself as, "Your host, Raymond," followed by spooky organ music by Lew White, and each episode punctuated by Raymond's morbid jokes and playful puns. Raymond's closing was an elongated "Pleasant dreeeeaams, hmmmmm?" and his style of narration became the standard for many similar radio programs to follow.… Read More
