I had mentioned that Bill Johnstone, the narrator of Lionel Barrymore's 1949 broadcast of "A Christmas Carol," had portrayed The Shadow on the Mutual Broadcasting System radio series of the same name.
He took on the part of as Lamont Cranston/The Shadow after Orson Welles had left the series. What happened to him anyway?
So, as we had done with Bret Morrison, let's hear a Christmas episode of "The Shadow" starring Bill Johnstone!
Here's "Joey's Christmas Story" from December 22, 1940:
Of note is that the cast also includes Agnes Moorehead as Margo Lane and Keenan Wynn as Shrevie!
As the announcer said, it's a heartwarming Yuletide adventure!
