eBay NEW & Ready to Ship Fast! – Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar – Old Time Detective Radio Drama Show Collection 745 Broadcasts (Digitally Remastered) on a Professional Disc – Provided by Sharper Jacks Toggle Navigation Toggle Navigation Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar (1949 – 1962) [AUDB – 10 – D3] 745 Broadcasts Digitally Remastered & Restored Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar is a radio drama that aired on CBS Radio from February 18, 1949 to September 30, 1962. The first several seasons imagined protagonist Johnny Dollar as a standard private investigator drama. In 1955 after a yearlong hiatus, the series came back in its best-known incarnation with Bob Bailey starring in “the transcribed adventures of the man with the action-packed expense account — America’s fabulous freelance insurance investigator.” There were 809 episodes (plus two not-for-broadcast auditions) in the 12-year run, and more than 720 still exist today. (Jim Cox’s book American Radio Networks: A History cites “886 total performances.”) As originally conceived, Johnny Dollar was a smart, tough, wisecracking detective who tossed silver-dollar tips to waiters and bellhops. Dick Powell starred in the audition show, recorded in 1948, but withdrew from the role in favor of other projects. The role went instead to Charles Russell. The show, for which Powell auditioned, was originally titled “Yours Truly, Lloyd London,” although the name of the show and its lead character were apparently changed before the audition tape of December 7, 1948, was actually recorded. With the first three actors to play Johnny Dollar — radio actor Russell and movie tough-guy actors Edmond O’Brien and John Lund — there was little to distinguish Johnny Dollar from other detective series at the time (Richard Diamond, Philip Marlowe and Sam Spade). While always a friend of the police, Johnny wasn’t necessarily a stickler for the strictest interpretation of the law. He was willing to let some things slide to satisfy his own sense of justice, as long as the interests of his employer were also protected. The series ended in September 1954. CBS Radio revived Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar in October 1955 with a new leading man, a new director, and a new format. The program changed from a 30-minute, one-episode-per-week affair to a 15-minute, five-nights-a-week serial (Monday through Friday, 8-8:15pm EST) produced and directed by radio veteran Jack Johnstone. The new Johnny Dollar was Bob Bailey, who had just come off another network detective series, Let George Do It. With a new lead and 75 minutes of air time each week, it became possible to develop each storyline with more detail and with more characters. Almost all of the Johnny Dollar serials were presented by CBS Radio on a sustaining basis (unsponsored, with no commercials); only two of the 55 serials take time out for a sponsor’s message. Bob Bailey was exceptionally good in this format, making Johnny more sensitive and thoughtful in addition to his other attributes. Vintage-radio enthusiasts[who?] often endorse Bailey as the best of the Johnny Dollars, and consider the 13-month run of five-part stories to be some of the greatest drama in radio history. The serial scripts were usually written by Jack Johnstone, “John Dawson” (a pseudonym for E. Jack Neuman), Les Crutchfield, or Robert Ryf, Blake Edwards also contributed several scripts and the show was always produced and directed by Johnstone. The show featured an excellent stock company of supporting actors, including Virginia Gregg, Harry Bartell, Vic Perrin, Lawrence Dobkin, Parley Baer, Howard McNear, John Dehner, Barney Phillips, Lillian Buyeff, Tony Barrett, Don Diamond, Alan Reed, and Forrest Lewis. Movie character actors appeared occasionally, including Jay Novello, Hans Conried, Frank Nelson, Leon Belasco, William Conrad, Edgar Barrier, and Billy Halop. In late 1956, CBS Radio retooled the show, which reverted to a weekly half-hour drama, airing on late Sunday afternoons. Bob Bailey continued in the leading role until 1960 (and wrote one episode, “The Carmen Kringle Matter”). Roy Rowan was the announcer. He also was an announcer on CBS’s “I Love Lucy”. Each story of the Bailey years started with a phone call from an insurance executive, calling on Johnny to investigate an unusual claim. Each story required Johnny to travel to some distant locale, usually within the United States but sometimes abroad, where he was almost always threatened with personal danger in the course of his investigations. Johnny’s file on each case was usually referenced as a “matter,” as in “The Silver Blue Matter” or “The Forbes Matter”. Later episodes were more fanciful, with titles like “The Wayward Trout Matter” and “The Price of Fame Matter” (the latter featuring a rare guest-star appearance by Vincent Price as himself). Johnny usually stuck to business, but would sometimes engage in romantic dalliances with women he encountered in his travels; later episodes gave Johnny a steady girlfriend, Betty Lewis. Johnny’s precious recreational time was usually spent fishing, and it was not uncommon for Johnny’s clients to exploit this favorite pastime in convincing him to take on a job. Each story was recounted in flashback, as Johnny listed each line item from his expense account. The episodes generally finished with Johnny tallying up his account and traveling back to Hartford, Connecticut, where he was based. Most of the expense account related to transportation, lodging, and meals, but no incidental expense was too small for Johnny to itemize, as in “Item nine, 10 cents. Aspirin. I needed them.” The monetary amounts weren’t always literal: the smallest line item Johnny ever recorded was “two cents: what I felt like” after a professional setback; the largest was “one million dollars” (the way he felt after finding a missing woman and her daughter in a snowbound cabin). Each episode would end with Johnny submitting his grand total of miscellaneous expenses. Sometimes Johnny would add a sardonic postscript under “Remarks,” detailing the aftermath of the case. (One case that especially disgusted Johnny ended abruptly with “Remarks — nil!”) In later seasons the program sometimes referred to itself, with other characters recognizing Dollar’s voice from the radio.
