Play Front Page Drama on Radio Days

Fifteen-minute dramas syndicated by Hearst to promote Hearst's magazine The American Weekly. Each one acted out a story from an upcoming issue: crimes, scandals, romances, ghost stories and oddities from around the world, and the announcer told listeners where to find the full story. Early shows were produced in New York by the General Broadcasting Company, and until about the 37th program the series was called The American Weekly Program.
