WELCOME TO THE GOLDEN AGE OF RADIO, AND THE BEST IN CLASSIC MYSTERY...
From 1939 to 1946 Americans gathered around their radio to listen to The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes -- featuring Basil Rathbone as the high strung crime-solver and Nigel Bruce as his phlegmatic assistant. Witty, fast-paced, and always surprising, these great radio plays, written by the prolific writing team of Anthony Boucher and Denis Green, are as fresh today as they were then, and feature perfect sound along with nostalgic wartime announcement, original narrations and radio commercials. This special collector's edition includes:
TAPE ONE:
THE AMATEUR MENDICANT SOCIETY and THE MYSTERY OF THE VANISHING WHITE ELEPHANT
TAPE TWO:
THE CASE OF THE LIMPING GHOST and THE GIRL WITH THE GAZELLE
TAPE THREE:
THE CASE OF THE OUT OF DATE MURDER and THE WALTZ OF DEATH
TAPE FOUR:
COLONEL WARBURTON'S MADNESS and THE IRON BOX
