Box 13 - "Damsel in Distress" (Old Time Radio, 2012)

Box 13 presents “Damsel in Distress,” episode 13 of the classic mystery-adventure series, originally broadcast November 14, 1948. Alan Ladd stars as mystery writer and former newspaperman Dan Holiday.

When finishing-school student Constance McLain receives anonymous letters and telephone threats demanding $1,000, she turns to Dan through his Box 13 newspaper advertisement. With kidnappers’ warnings growing more alarming, Holiday takes on a tense case of extortion and menace. The episode was written by Russell Hughes and features Sylvia Picker as Suzy.

Box 13 presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
