Gibson, Walter. File of Walter Gibson ?Strange? Radio Show Scripts, and Other Ephemera. Thirteen stapled mimeographed scripts for nine different episodes of the radio show ?Strange? (1955), to air on ABC, comprising: May 30 (two copies), June 6, June 8 (three copies), June 27 (two copies), June 28, June 29, June 30, July 7, and July 8. Also includes: six scripts for 1955 episodes of ?Broadway Matinee?; facsimile printing of the June 7, 1955 episode; a copy of Gibson?s funeral service program (1986); copies of an auction catalog of Gibson?s estate; color snapshots of Gibson in his study and with Multiplying Balls; and several pieces of Shadow ephemera. As narrator of this fifteen-minute radio show, Gibson focused on supernatural, weird, and uncanny stories, such as a ?ghost that saved a ship,? with voice actors re-enacting the unusual events complete with sound effects.
