The Mysterious Traveler
_____________________________________
THE MYSTERIOUS TRAVELER first rode the rails on Mutual in 1943 and
was heard for the next nine years without a sponsor. Maurice Tarplin
portrayed the mysterious traveler for the entire run.
The shows opened with a shrieking locomotive roaring down the tracks.
You, the listener, are a passenger along with another passenger, who
insists on telling you a weird tale. The tale ends as the time the
train reaches the next stop, with Maurice Tarplin's promise of
another tale, next time you're on the train.
David Kogan and Robert A. Arthur wrote and directed the series for
the entire nine years.
