Episode 171 - A Thrill at Any Price (The Saint & Johnny Dollar)

In honor of what would have been his 115th birthday, we tip our hat to Vincent Price, the legendary star of stage, screen, and television. Price was a polished radio performer in the years before he became best known as a big screen horror star. From 1947 to 1951, he starred as Simon Templar - "the Robin Hood of modern crime" - in The Saint . We'll celebrate this wonderful actor with one of his turns as Templar - "The Big Swindle" (originally aired on NBC on February 25, 1951). Then Vincent Price plays…Vincent Price in "The Price of Fame Matter," an Armed Forces Radio Service rebroadcast of an adventure of Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar – a story that finds Price partnering with Bob Bailey's fabulous freelance insurance investigator.
