The Shadow: The Lost Shows

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Great American Audio is proud to present THE SHADOW: THE LOST SHOWS, a collection of 10 great original radio shows never before commercially available. Painstakingly assembled by Anthony Tollin, the foremost authority on "The Shadow," radio's greatest crime fighter returns to once again demonstrate that "the weed of crime bears bitter fruit." Featured in this very special collector's set is the long-lost premiere broadcast of "The Shadow" that first introduced radio listeners to the characters of Lamont Cranston and Margot Lane and gave the young Orson Welles his first starring role in a radio series. Listen as "The Shadow" demonstrates once again that "crime does not pay!"

In addition to the original radio broadcasts, THE SHADOW: THE LOST SHOWS book is a fascinating insider's peek at the men who created "The Shadow" and the actors who cast a long shadow over the Golden Age of Radio. Filled with rare photos and fascinating historical anecdotes, here is the behind-the-scenes story of radio's greatest mystery program.
