Description: SPACE PATROL Item Description "Space Patrol" was a science fiction adventure, aimed at juvenile audiences of the early 1950s via television, radio, and comic books. The stories followed the 30th-century adventures of "Commander Buzz Corry" (Ed Kemmer) of the "United Planets Space Patrol" and his young improbably-named sidekick "Cadet Happy" (Lyn Osborn) as they faced nefarious interplanetary villains with diabolical schemes. Not surprisingly, being a product of the 1950s, some of these villains had Russian- or German-sounding accents. Cmdr. Corry and his allies were aided by such nifty gadgets as "miniature space-o-phones" and "atomolights." Episodes had such pulp-magazine titles as "Revolt of the Space Rats" and "The Menace of Planet X." The show played directly to kids, and each episode shamelessly merchandised various toys and mail-order premiums tied into the series during their commercial breaks. Even the ads for corporate sponsor Chex cereals used the show's space opera motif in their pitches. A unique feature of the radio adventures was that the premium of the month was often worked intricately into the action of the live adventures. Space Patrol first appeared on network radio in June, 1950, as the surprise, unannounced replacement for the "Tom Mix" radio program, which Ralston cereals had sponsored since the early 1930s. This earliest radio version was a daily, Monday - Friday, 15-minute serial with an ongoing plot line. Later, a 30-minute version, complete in one episode, began on Saturday mornings in 1952. The success of the TV show spawned another radio version, which ran from October 1952 to March 1955. The same cast of actors performed on both shows. The writers, scripts, adventures and director were quite different in radio versus TV incarnations. Naturally, the series lacked the adult sophistication of such shows as X Minus One, which focused on adapting short fiction by notable genre names as Robert A. Heinlein and Ray Bradbury. But as a throwback to the sort of Golden Age space opera popularized in the 1930s, the days of science fiction's infancy, by pioneering magazine editor Hugo Gernsback, "Space Patrol" is prized by OTR collectors today as one of radio's most enjoyable adventures. This collection of "Space Patrol" shows features 103 shows on 1 compact disc. Each episode is presented in the .mp3 format. There are many hours of entertaining "Space Patrol" programs. The CD is labeled and provided in a highly protective jewel case. A list of the programs on the disc as well as the date the program originally aired (if known) is also provided. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR EQUIPMENT WILL PLAY MP3 FORMATTED FILES BEFORE PURCHASING THIS ITEM. IT IS ULTIMATELY THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER TO ENSURE THAT HIS OR HER EQUIPMENT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE MP3 FORMAT. A note concerning sound quality. The sound quality for the shows in this collection is very good to good. It is difficult to find perfect recordings from the golden age of radio due to the equipment used for recording and the fact that many of the recordings were made 60, 70 or even 80 years ago.
