Perry Mason-The Case of The Velvet Claws.

Posted by martin fennell on March 31, 2016 at 2:03pm

From Colonial Radio Theatre.

"

Criminal lawyer and all-time #1 mystery author Erle Stanley Gardner wrote close to 150 novels that have sold 300 million copies worldwide. His most popular books starred the incomparable attorney-sleuth Perry Mason. Starring Jerry Robbins and The Colonial Radio Players.

 

Thanks to a bungled robbery at a fancy hotel, the already-married Eva Griffin has been caught in the company of a prominent congressman. To protect the politico, Eva's ready to pay the editor of a sleazy tabloid his hush money. But Perry Mason has other plans. He tracks down the phantom fat cat who secretly runs the blackmailing tabloid -only to discover a shocking scoop. By the time Mason's comely client finally comes clean, her husband has taken a bullet in the heart. Now Perry Mason has two choices: represent the cunning widow in her wrangle for the dead man's money - or take the rap for murder.

    Dear Martin,

    Thanks so much for one of my favourite characters that was on either TV and radio.  I look forward to listening to the show.

      Just had a listen to this play.  It was very enjoyable and very well scripted and acted.  Much more complicated and nuanced than the TV episode of the same name.  

      Do you have others?

      I'm afraid, i don't.

      Sory.

      Geez, I can't even remember the name of the website I was paying a subscription to, in order to get that. I'm sure it was the only episode available from there.

      but it looks like they are going for 2.95 at itunes

      or they are also available on audible

      as audible offers a free 30 day trial, maybe you could listen to them
