Believe it or not, there are a few radio shows over the years that
involved Thorne Smith in some way, shape or manner. Click on each title
listed below for more information.
The Adventures of Topper (1945)
Skin & Bones (1933)
Jean Shepherd (Date Unknown)
Still pulling together info on the episode of Jean Shepherd's show where he talks about his admiration of Thorne Smith and Night Life of the Gods.
I've managed to track
down six episodes of THE ADVENTURES OF TOPPER as well as the Jean
Shepherd program.
I am still seeking a copy of the SKIN AND BONES
dramatization that was followed by an on-air interview with the author
himself! The show was produced by Robert Haydon Jones and was sponsored
by Macy's right around Christmas of 1933 in New York City.
If
you know anyone who might be able to help us track a copy down, please
drop us a line via our Contact Page. Even if it's as simple as a
friend you know who works for Macy's, we'd appreciate the help.
Wouldn't you want to be able to hear what the author of TOPPER
and THE STRAY LAMB actually sounded like?
