Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar

Broadcast History: Feb 11, 1949 to Sept 30, 1962

Yours Truly Johnny Dollar was the last dramatic show on the air, closing down the art of dramatic network radio on September 30 1962. He was a freelance insurance investigator. The crime adventure series was based upon the experiences of his investigations and always began and ended with a statement of costs being posted. He was “the man with the action-packed expense account”. He was always ready to fly to the far corners of the country for a cut of recovered goods, had an analytical mind, a nose for trouble, and the brawn to take care of himself when the going got dirty and, he always lived to fight again and again.
