The Silver State Chronicles

Sam Spade Is On The Case

Back in the old days, radio networks would often broadcast adaptations of major motion pictures, refined for the radio format. In this case, CBS adapted the classic 1941 film, The Maltese Falcon.

And they did an outstanding job, bringing in the film’s primary cast of Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor, and the legendary Sidney Greenstreet to reprise their big-screen roles.

So sit back and enjoy the the exploits of detective Sam Spade in the radio adaptation of Dashiell Hammett’s classic, The Maltese Falcon.
