If you were a child during the Great Depression of the 1930’s, it’s likely that you rushed to the radio each weekday afternoon just in time to hear Pierre Andre’s booming voice announce that it was “Adventure Time with Orphan Annie!”, followed by that familiar pipe organ theme, “Secret Society” messages, and the inevitable offers for the rings and badges and mugs and premiums that could be had for “just ten cents and the seal from the Ovaltine package”.
One of radio’s most memorable classics, “Little Orphan Annie” returns in this collection of 23 complete fifteen-minute episodes dating from 1936 and 1938 - shows that haven’t been heard in over seventy years, transferred from long-lost transcription recordings and fully restored for sparkling audio quality.
