Best Old Time Radio Podcast with Bob Bro Wednesday, March 24, 2021 - OTR Mysteries Adventures of Philip Marlowe - "The Vital Statistic" "This time a car hop knocked me down a flight of stairs and an honest woman was strangled by a green silk sash while a simpering dandy was shot to death. All because of a run-of-the-mill accident 500 miles away. " When Marlowe pulls over to buy a paper, a woman jumps into his car and instructs him to take off because she is being chased. She was: "Streamlined with close-cropped hair the color of a smoky sunset and had on low heeled slippers brocaded in bronze and a dress that conformed as close and smooth as lacquer on a Chinese vase." When Marlowe reveals he is a private detective the damsel in distress asks him for his help. Featuring: Gerald Mohr, Charlotte Lawrence, Lawrence Dobkin, Elliott Reid, Doris Singleton, Georgia Ellis, Bill Lally, Hugh Thomas Original Air Date: March 14, 1950 on CBS.
