# Weekend, Vol I

Heard 1941–1964. 24 episodes.

OTR Weekend, Vol I Here, for your entertainment, a dozen old-time radio shows with background noise removed or reduced, sound adjusted to a more even tone, and in the case of Dinah Shore, file slowed down to her normal vocal timbre instead of that of a Munchkin. Special treat: the Beulah file is all four episodes of Vacation Troubles stitched together as one show! Compare to files already in the OTR section. I would suggest parsing these out to six episodes per day -- 5 almost-30-minute episodes and one 51/54 minute Lux Theater to avoid sensory overload.

From the Old Time Radio collection at the Internet Archive, uploaded by the collector named.

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.
