The Betrayer (Aired April 2, 1948)
The program appears to have aired sustained for its first three months, with three to five sponsors beginning to make an appearance with Program #17, "The Mystery of The Seven Keys" of December 28, 1943. There is a circulating program titled "Homicide for Hannah", that should have been the first Molle Mystery Theater, but there is no provenance anywhere that the initial program ever actually aired. This is the first circulating program in which we hear the program refer to itself as Molle Mystery Theater. Show Notes From The Digital Deli.
THIS EPISODE:
April 2, 1948. NBC network. "The Betrayer". Sponsored by: Molle shaving cream, Double Dandereen, Ironized Yeast. Albert Winston is being betrayed by a set of dictaphone records. It seems he has a secret regarding Mrs. Winston and the truth is about to come out. Julie Haydon plays one role, but in two voices. It's amazing how she changes from one voice to the other in the middle of a sentence.
