Before Johnny Dollar came along, radio favorite Bob Bailey was starred in an offbeat private-eye series entitled “Let George Do It”. As played by Bailey, George Valentine was an ex-cop-turned-private-investigator who eschewed muscle in favor of manual dexterity and analytical thinking skills. His friendly nemeses on the police force included Lieutenant Riley (Wally Maher) and Lieutenant Johnson (Ken Christy) and he also depended on his gal Friday, Claire Brooks (“Brooksie”), played first by Frances Robinson and later by Virginia Gregg. The twenty episodes in this ten-hour collection, fully restored from a series of long-lost transcription recordings by Radio Archives, give you the chance to really hear what happens when you “Let George Do It”. Programs include: There Ain’t No Justice / Portrait of a Suicide / The Prairie Dog / Tonight the Mayhem’s Going to Be Different / The Eight Ball / Every Shot Counts / The Anthill / Touched By an Angel / Drop Dead! / Uncle Harry’s Bones / This Ain’t No Way to Run a Railroad / No Escape From the Jungle / Murder on Vacation / The Man Behind the Frame / Big Brother / What Became of Terry Cable? / The Discovery of Ponce the Lion / The Fearless Clown / The Man From French Guiana / Sucker Stunt
