Radio Memories

FORT LARAMIE

CONTENTS:

     Raymond Burr starred as Captain Lee Quince in this 40 broadcast series.  There are 39 original scripts and one repeat.  We have also included the series audition program.  While these programs were fiction, the hard lives and living conditions are based on fact.  There was a real Fort Laramie in Wyoming.  Starting out as a private post on the Laramie and North Platte rivers for fur traders in 1834, there soon grew a need of military protection for further development of the region.  The military fort was established on 04/09/1849 and the fort continued until its abandoned on 04/20/1890.  Supporting Raymond Burr in the following broadcasts, are Vic Perrin as Sergeant Goerss, Harry Bartell as Lieutenant Seiberts and Jack Moyles as Major Daggett.  Norman Macdonnell created the series, with music by Amerigo Moreno.  The superb sound effects were created by one of radio's best teams, Ray Kemper, Bill James and Tom Hanley.  The broadcasts were heard over the CBS radio network from 01/22/56 to 10/28/56 on Sunday nights.  We have also included a rare audition recording with John Dehner.
