Overview
Calling All Cars, a popular crime drama heard from 1933 to 1939. One of radio s earliest and most durable police procedural shows, the series' stark and gritty realism is strongly reminiscent of Warner Brothers gangster films of the 1930s- particularly with the presence of real-life LAPD dispatcher Jesse Rosenquist, whose unique voice and name became the show's trademark; Rosenquist contributed to the American lexicon the program's title and the now time-honored phrase that is all. None of the actors on the series ever received on-air credit, but sharp eared radio fans can hear the likes of Elvia Allman, Jackson Beck, Charles Bickford, Gale Gordon, John Bigson, Richard LeGrand, and Hanley Stafford. Episodes include: The Cut Rate Murder, The Murder of a Soul, A Cup of Coffee, Some Strychnine, and You, The Moving Picture Murder, Highlights of 1934, Crime Does Not Pay, The San Quentin Prison Break, Banker in the Well, California's Two-Man Crime Wave, Undercover Woman, The Mae West Jewel Robbery"
