Welcome to the fourth installment in our lead-up to Halloween on The Good Old Days of Radio Show. In this episode, we have an episode of The Shadow, titled “The Face,” originally aired on September 21, 1947. The plot follows Hugh Windham, a former actor whose face is horribly disfigured in a plane accident. After plastic surgery fails, Windham becomes a ruthless killer, targeting women who knew his original looks, until The Shadow steps in to stop him. You’ll also hear the original Blue Coal advertisements as they appeared in the broadcast, and John talks about how those ads and occasional mentions of post-war fuel shortages remind us of the real-world backdrop listeners faced at the time.
