Another 16mm reel from my collection - Although this film is from 1947 it might seem stylistically more at home in the 1930's. As usual I transferred this reel with my own Telecine. Enjoy!

    This is great, OTR the theater of the mind is an amazing amount of basically copyright free material or at least programs.
    Great for those long trips or sitting in a waiting room, much better than TV because you can do things while you listen.

    I go to sleep every night listening to old time radio…The Great Gildersleeve and Dragnet are just a couple of my favorites.

    Simple times. As a kid in the 70's, I remember listening to Radio Mystery Theater as I lay in bed, soon to doze off for the night. I am amazed terrestrial radio still exists.

    Now that The War is over, it seems people had to find other things to complain about.

    First time I saw the face of the iconic voice of Time Marches On…but what was his name?

    A few years ago, I was in a local college radio station …I expected a laptop with a microphone in front of it, but a DJ from the 1940s would have been familiar with it, other than a few led displays, it looked like what radio stations have looked like for decades…
