What a coincidence... today's Mr. DA post is from May 5, 1948... as is The Big Story post offered today.

When today's episode, Spring Fever from May 1948 appeared in circulation, it was accompanied by Deadly Snowflake. They were found by an Oregon collector around 1975, and it brought the number of Jostyn shows in circulation at the time to around eight! It was a really big deal, as you can imagine, and he had many people asking to trade with him.

Writer and director Ed Byron keeps an archive of news stories for plotline ideas. This was common for radio scriptwriters -- they all had their favorite resources to help keep new stories coming every week and to avoid "writer's block" where you stare at your typewriter waiting for an idea, any idea, to come forward.

For many years, this "Case of the Unknown Source" and the upcoming "Case of the Money Machine" were the only Mr. DA shows with Jay Jostyn that were circulating.

Nice item about Jay Jostyn
1949-10-09 San Bernardino CA County Sun

The dollar figure for 1941 is over US$400,000/year.
By this time in the series with its top ratings for years,
he was probably making double or more.
