MANY OTHER SHOWS AVAILABLE MESSAGE IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN OLD TIME RADIO SHOW. CRIME CLASSICS Crime Classics came to CBS September 30, 1953 and was a neat little series of "truecrime stories". The show introduced itself succinctly: "Crime Classics, a series of true crime stories from the records and newspapers of every land, from every time. Your host each week, Mr. Thomas Hyland --connoisseur of crime, student of violence, and teller of murders." ThomasHyland was played by Lou Merrill, although you'd never know it was an"actor" doing the part. The great Elliott Lewis, actor, producer anddirector of Suspense, Broadway is MyBeat, and On Stage is in charge of this very intelligent and enjoyable show. Bernard Herrmann composed the music that duplicated authentic music of the era being dramatized. Morton Fine and DavidFriedkin wrote the scripts. Lewis and his writers collected and developed true crime stories expressly for Crime Classics. Thomas Hyland's delivery is measured andmild-mannered, as if giving a college lecture. Would that all professors werethis interesting! The actors in the stories themselves are uniformly sensitive.Orchestral scores by the great Bernard Hermann, who did Orson Welles' MercuryTheater radio show and then Alfred Hitchcock's films, give the stories sophistication and mood. So do the tasteful sound effects. There is a wry,cool-blooded tone to the proceedings. Cases profiled on the series ranged from seventeenth-century murder to the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Each andevery story, however bizarre, is actually based on fact. For example, the show about the Younger Brothers of the American West has some very interesting background details concerning Quantrell's Raiders and the Kansas Jayhawks. Inthe story of "John Hayes, his Head, and How They Were Parted," wehear the tale of a glassblower who blows glass perfectly and completely surrounding the severed head of a unknown dead man and placed in glass. Then itis placed in a museum where it remained pending identification. Thus his killers were found out by the dead man, using his head. 1 Crime Classics (000) 1952-12-03 (Audition) - The Crime of Bathsheba Spooner26:552 Crime Classics (001) 1953-06-15 - The Crime of Bathsheba Spooner29:553 Crime Classics (002) 1953-06-22 - The Shockingly Peaceful Passing of Thomas Edwin Bartlett, Green Grocer29:414 Crime Classics (003) 1953-06-29 (AFRTS) - The Checkered Life and Sudden Death of Colonel James Fisk, Jr.28:355 Crime Classics (003) 1953-06-29 - The Checkered Life and Sudden Death of Colonel James Fisk, Jr.29:406 Crime Classics (004) 1953-07-06 - The Shrapnelled Body of Charles Drew, Sr.29:477 Crime Classics (005) 1953-07-13 - The Terrible Deed of John White Webster29:498 Crime Classics (006) 1953-07-20 - The Death of a Picture Hanger29:499 Crime Classics (007) 1953-07-27 (AFRTS) - The Final Day of General Ketchum, and How He Died29:4410 Crime Classics (007) 1953-07-27 - The Final Day of General Ketchum, and How He Died29:0511 Crime Classics (008) 1953-08-03 - Mr. Thrower's Hammer29:4912 Crime Classics (009) 1953-08-10 (AFRTS) - The Axe and the Droot Family, How They Fared29:4513 Crime Classics (009) 1953-08-10 - The Axe and the Droot Family, How They Fared29:5214 Crime Classics (010) 1953-08-17 - The Incredible Trial of Laura D.
