YOUR FAVORITE OLD RADIO PROGRAMS FROM THE 1930S, 40S, AND 50S PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE LISTING !! PAT NOVAK FOR HIRE 23 OLDTIME RADIO SHOWS IN .MP3 FORMAT ON USB FLASH DRIVE OUR INVENTORY SKU 88-1605 USB  Pat Novak, for Hire is an old-time radio detective drama series which aired from 1946 to 1947 as a West Coast regional program (produced at KGO in San Francisco) and in 1949 as a nationwide program for ABC. The regional version originally starred Jack Webb in the title role, with scripts by his roommate Richard L. Breen. When Webb and Breen moved from San Francisco to Los Angeles to work on an extremely similar nationwide series, Johnny Madero, Pier 23, for the Mutual network, Webb was replaced by Ben Morris and Breen by other writers. In the later 1949 network version, Jack Webb resumed the Novak role, and Breen his duties as scriptwriter. The series is popular among fans for its fast-paced, hard-boiled dialogue and action and witty one-liners. Each episode of the program, particularly the Jack Webb episodes, follows the same basic formula; a foghorn sounds and Novak's footsteps are heard approaching. He then pauses and begins by wearily saying "Sure, I'm Pat Novak... for hire" (in one episode, "Rory Malone", he opens with "Sure, I'm Pat Foghorn..."). The foghorn repeats and leads to the intro theme, during which Novak gives a monologue about the waterfront and his job renting boats. Jack Webb narrates the story and plays the titular character. A downtrodden cynic, Novak throws off such lines as "Around here a set of morals won't cause any more stir than Mother's Day in an orphanage". He then relates a story about the trouble in which he found himself the past week. THIS ITEM IS A USB FLASH DRIVE ONLY. THIS USB DRIVE WILL ARRIVE WITH THE MP3 FILES ADVERTISED IN THIS OFFER.
