Their pictures on the air

Films of theirs the anthologies restaged

Lux Radio Theatre, Screen Guild Theater, Academy Award Theater and their neighbours existed to put motion pictures at a microphone. These are adaptations of Edward G. Robinson's pictures that survive in the archive. Sometimes the film's own players took the parts; sometimes the network cast whoever was in town. Where the transfer does not say, neither do we.
