Boxcars711 Old Time Radio Pod - Crime Classics - Shockingly Peaceful Passing Of Thomas Bartlett (6-22-53)
Shockingly Peaceful Passing Of Thomas Bartlett (Aired June 22, 1953)
Crime Classics was a U. S. radio docudrama which aired over CBS from June 15, 1953 to June 30, 1954. Created, produced, and directed by radio actor/director Elliott Lewis, the program was basically a historical true crime series, examining crimes, and especially murders, from the past. It grew out of Lewis's personal interest in famous murder cases, and took a documentary-like approach to the subject, carefully recreating the facts, personages, and feel of the time period. Comparatively little dramatic license was taken with the facts and events, but the tragedy was leavened with humor, expressed largely through the narration.
