Forst heard these shows on Stan Freeberg's 'old time radio' show in the 1980s and tape recorded them...tho they didnt come often ( Stan played a lot of 'suspense' shows, which were also fine). This os one of the best ones, with Jack ( 'Dragnet') Webb. My favorites are 'Last will and nursery rhyme', 'The haunted Artist' and the one ( cant think of its name right off) with Barry Kroger ( voice a bit like orson wells) as the letter writer who promises to find out the identity of the man behind box 13 and murder him within 3 days...that is the grimmest one...and Kroger was good in any role, tho not given much work in films ( he had a 'radio face') he was great as the crooked lawyer who meets a grisly end in the Richard Conte-Victor Mature film noir ' Cry of thr city' from 1947.
Brilliant episode. I absolutely love Box 13, they are marvelous stories. Thanks for your putting it up on youtube :)
Thanks for posting these fine programs!
As always, top notch
These are excellent written scripts -varied in plots from one episode to the next - and ably acted by Alan Ladd and cast.
I think so, too, and this BTW, is my favorite episode!
Love Alan Ladd and box 13.
This episode is great. Isn't thug number 2 Jack Webb?
@@tesmusicnewsissues9770 Yes it is Jack Webb! Such a distinctive voice.
One of Box 13's finest!
That's Jack Webb voice later in the show
This was a great one
Thank you!
Winthrop sounds like the crypt keeper ! 🤣
"You wanted to play dog-eat-dog, now play it!"
Thanks for tuning in.
good actor known in Hollywood as The quite man
Agreed!
I juat remembered the title of the best of the box 13 episodes, the one with Barry Kroger.---'Find Me, Find Death'..
