Miracle on 34th Street

This is the absolute best old radio from the 1940's.

You can listen to each part by clicking the radio buttons. This is when radio was at it's best!

That is very cool, I remember as a boy we used to sit around the radio all listening to the stories

I have satellite radio and enjoy listening to the radio classics from the 30's to the 60's.
As a kid growing up on a farm in the 40's I listened to the radio shows coming in from the USA. Sometimes the receoption wasn't that good, but I pressed my ear to the speaker to catch every detail.
These days, as an adult, I appreciate how well those shows were done and how entertaining they were - and how many big-name movie stars did radio.
I get a big kick out of the western, detective and police shows such as Gunsmoke, Texas Rangers, Dragnet, Have Gun, Will Travel, The Shadow, etc.

Considering the "reality" crap that's on TV these days I would say you are correct!!

 

[The Seeker]

You can say that again!!

Remember the Bruce Springsteen song 57 channels and nothing on? Now it is 357 channels and nothing on.
