Wildcat44, I have an On Your Mark show dated 10-6-48 but it's the same show as your 3-30-46 show. (?)

Another show from News Comes to Life. From Goldin: The News Comes To Life. May 11, 1937. WJR, Detroit. R.G. Dun Cigars. The dramatized news story is about two men who tunnel into the First National Bank in Plymouth, Michigan, then force a cashier to open the time lock on the vault. Franklin Mitchell (announcer), Harry Burge (? narrator).

I looked through the radio listings in the New York Times for both dates it's not listed in either on WOR. They mentioned the world series being played so it is from October. Goldin lists that as the date and so does OTRCat.

I got mine from Vintage Broadcasts - bad date.

So its probably from Oct 6 1948. The World Series was broadcast on WOR starting at 12:45 and lasted 1 hour 43 minutes. On the Mark was usually on at 2:30 as per 10/13/48 listing. So I guess it was put on after the game close to its usual time.

Thanks for the heads up. I believe another mystery solved. Very Happy

I corrected the date in the previous post.
