A GAP TO FILL

Posted by DAN SHARPLES on June 25, 2012 at 10:05am in Old Time Radio & Nostalgia Trade

It seems to me that several of the classical music programs are missing. Such as
CHASE & SANBORN HOUR WITH NELSON EDDY(ALL THE 1939-1939) SHOWS
MAGIC KEY OF RCA, HUGE GAPS FROM THE SERIES
FORD SUNDAY EVENING HOUR-NONE SEEM TO BE AROUND
PAUSE THAT REFRESHES THE AIR
THE STANDARD HOUR(HUGE GAPS FOR THIS SERIES)
OLD GOLD SHOW WITH NELSON EDDY(1942-1943)
GREAT MOMENTS IN MUSIC-ONLY HAVE A FEW OF THESE

THERE ARE QUITE A LOT OF COLLECTORS FOR THESE TYPE OF SHOWS.THAT I KNOW OF.
I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY THESE SHOWS ARE MISSING AND NOT AVAILABLE.
IF I COLLECTED SHOWS SUCH AS FIBBER MCGEE, OR JACK BENNY. THERE WOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM, BUT MY AREA OF INTEREST ID VERY MUCH UNDER UNDER REPRESENTED, ESPECIALLY VIA INTERNET DEALERS, WHO SEEM TO HAVE MUCH THE SAME STUFF.

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED, I KNOW OF NOWHERE TO APPROACH?

    Hello Dan,

    Some of the shows you mentioned can be found here to download - http://otrrlibrary.org/

    They also list some recommended OTR Dealers.

      Steve

      Thanks for the reply. I have already gone down that road Internetarchive-OTRCAT etc.plus many others.

      What I really need is someone  who wants to take the time and trouble to encode these missing shows and get them out there.

      A few years back a chap in America, (I will not name him) had these missing shows on a hard drive that was apparantly corrupted and useless. I still have his list of Magic key shows and he had them. So you see someone have these broadcasts. The  LOC in Washington has quite a few of them but their prices are sky high, I know myself from experience.

      If you come across any shows Steve, just let me know, I have a lot of unusual and rare items.

      regards

      dan
