Mousepod has more media than anyone else I know.

Mousepod also likes Orson Welles, so maybe he'll know the answer?

Have you ever heard a Mercury Radio broadcast from 1938 of Jane Eyre with Welles and Agnes Moorhead (or more importantly, know where I can get a copy of one)

I'm dying to hear it and I can't seem to find it legit-like.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure I have it. I'll check when I get home from work.

I did and it's not there, only a 1946 version. :-( But, the rest of that is tempting!

Bad news. I have almost 100 hours of Orson Welles on the radio... but Jane Eyre is apparently one of the 4 Mercury Theatre shows not in circulation. Grrr.

MP, thanks for checking. I figured if it was not on any of the legit compilations I've seen, it's not out there. Too bad! :(

I wonder why there are 4 Mercury radio shows that are not in circulation, think they are lost?

So, next question is, where did you get the 100+ hours of radio shows? Can you point me in the general direction?

I've had 'em for a long time. Mostly through trades and Usenet. All of my Welles (in mp3 format) fits on a single DVD-R, if you'd like a copy...
