(10 Episodes) “Meet Corliss Archer” The first broadcasting of CBS's “Meet Corliss Archer” (with Campbell's Soup as their sponsor) was April 28, 1946. "Meet Corliss Archer" (CBS’s version of NBC’s popular teenage program, “A Date With Judy”) was yet another program created to entice the younger (teenage) generation to leave extra-curricular activities far behind and hang out, instead, around the family radio.
More about it
In 1948, Corliss moved from CBS radio to NBC radio, as a summer replacement for “The Bob Hope Show.” During that same year, Corliss Archer became a comic book character, when ‘Fox Feature Syndicate,’ with the aid of the artwork of Al Feldstein (Al later became the editor of MAD Magazine), published 3 comic book issues (March 1948-July 1948) with Corliss’ fictional face & name on it.
From October 03, 1952 to June 26, 1953, she aired on ABC radio, eventually returning to CBS. Despite the program's long run, less than 24 episodes are known to exist. * SOURCE: Wikipedia
As in the case of several other Old Time Radio Sitcoms that do not have many surviving episodes, "Meet Corliss Archer" has many duplicated downloads, as a result of 'made-up-titles' for eps that don’t appear to have a current name. Meet Corliss Archer did graduate from radio to TV, many copies of which can be found right here within the Internet Archive! OTR * def gp ddh

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
