<p>The Adventures of Sam Spade, Detective was a radio series based loosely on the private detective character Sam Spade, created by writer Dashiell Hammett for The Maltese Falcon. The show ran for 13 episodes on ABC in 1946, for 157 episodes on CBS in 1946-1949, and finally for 51 episodes on NBC in 1949-1951. The series starred Howard Duff (and later, Steve Dunne) as Sam Spade and Lurene Tuttle as his secretary Effie, and took a considerably more tongue-in-cheek approach to the character than the novel or movie. The announcer was Dick Joy.</p><p>The series was largely overseen by producer/director William Spier. In 1947, scriptwriters Jason James and Bob Tallman received an Edgar Award for Best Radio Drama from the Mystery Writers of America.</p><p>Before the series, Sam Spade had been played in radio adaptations of The Maltese Falcon by both Edward G. Robinson (in a 1943 Lux Radio Theater production) and by Humphrey Bogart (in a 1941 Academy Award Theater production), both on CBS.</p><p>Dashiell Hammett's name was removed from the series in the late 1940s because he was being investigated for involvement with the Communist Party.

The Adventures Of The FalconJoin Now to Follow

<p>The Falcon radio series premiered on the Blue Network on April 10, 1943, continuing on NBC and Mutual until November 27, 1954. Some 70 episodes were produced. Like the Falcon film series, the radio plots mixed danger, romance and comedy in equal parts. Each show began with a telephone ringing and Michael Waring, the Falcon, answering the phone. Speaking with a woman whose voice was never heard, Waring would explain that he had an urgent situation in which he had to deal with criminals. This led into the standard opening, followed by the week's tale of adventure. Often, incompetent police were unable to solve the mysteries without his help.</p><p>Listen to our radio station Old Time radio <a href="https://link.radioking.com/otradio" rel="nofollow">https://link.radioking.com/otradio</a></p><p>Listen to other Shows at My Classic Radio <a href="https://www.myclassicradio.net/" rel="nofollow">https://www.myclassicradio.net/</a></p><p>Patreon <a href="https://www.patreon.com/entertainment_radio" rel="nofollow">Entertainment Radio | Broadcasting Classic Radio Shows | Patreon</a></p><p>Remember that times have changed, and some shows might not reflect the standards of today’s politically correct society.
