Episode 561 - Three Coins in the Fountain (Philip Marlowe, Black Museum, & Johnny Dollar)
To some, it's just a pocketful of change, but in these three old time radio mysteries, coins play central parts in the crimes. First, Philip Marlowe hunts for a coin worth a cool $37,000 in "The Collector's Item" (originally aired on CBS on August 25, 1950). Then, Orson Welles tells how a single shilling was tied to a murder in a syndicated Scotland Yard story from The Black Museum. Finally, Bob Bailey stars as Johnny Dollar in a case involving Civil War currency - "The Confederate Coinage Matter" (AFRS rebroadcast; originally aired on CBS on July 28, 1957).
Note: No intro today but hopefully back soon. Thanks for your patience!
