This was a good audition for what became the "Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar" radio series. I used to listen to the radio series when Edmund O'Brien and then John Lund were in the role of "Johnny Dollar." The fifteen minute 5 evenings a week with Bob Bailey in the main role was excellent. The one drawback to the five evenings a week was the issue of being available to listen to each of the five broadcasts. Bob Bailey was excellent in the role of "Johnny Dollar."

I wish my mp3 player was big enough to store all these shows.

Dick Powell did a wonderful job. I wonder why he didn't get the job.

According to the Wikipedia article on the show, he turned it down in favor of other detective shows. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yours_Truly,_Johnny_Dollar

Technically it's pre-number one, as it is an unaired audition episode featuring Dick Powell, who never played the role in the broadcast series. They did reuse the script for the fifth broadcast episode. At least one other audition episode was recorded, starring the original lead, Charles Russell. It is believed to exist but is not currently available.
