All American Old Time Radio Show Classic

Let George Do It
2 CD Set

For a small taste of this great series,
listen to the preview below.

This show comes on 2 CDs In MP3 Format

The radio drama series, Let George Do It ran from 1946 to 1954. The show was produced by Owen and Pauline Vinson from 1946 to 1954. It starred Bob Bailey as detective-for-hire George Valentine. Olan Soule stepped into the role in 1954.

Clients would come to Valentine's office after reading a newspaper carrying his classified ad, which read:

Personal notice: Danger's my stock in trade. If the job's too tough for you to handle, you've got a job for me. George Valentine.

The few earliest episodes were more sitcom than private eye shows, then George went from stumbling comedic hero to tough guy private eye. Valentine's secretary was Claire Brooks, aka Brooksie played by Frances Robinson, Virginia Gregg, and Lillian Buyeff. As Valentine made his rounds in search of the bad guys, he usually encountered Brooksie's kid brother, Sonny (Eddie Firestone), Lieutenant Riley (Wally Maher) and elevator man Caleb (Joseph Kearns). For the first few shows, Sonny was George's assistant, but he was soon relegated to an occasional character.

Sponsored by Standard Oil, the program was broadcast on the West Coast Mutual Broadcasting System from October 18, 1946 to September 27, 1954, first on Friday evenings and then on Mondays. In its last season, transcriptions were aired in New York, Wednesdays at 9:30pm, from January 20, 1954 to January 12, 1955.

John Hiestand was the program's announcer. Don Clark directed the scripts by David Victor and Jackson Gillis. The background music was supplied by Eddie Dunstedter, initially with a full orchestra. When television supplanted radio as the country's primary home entertainment, radio budgets got skimpier and skimpier and Dunstedter's orchestra was replaced by an organ.

So sit back, and for better then 85 hours “Let George Do It”, with over 175 episodes you can enjoy lots of private eye drama.
