Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives)

Episode 629 - Pinch of Basil (New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes & Cavalcade of America)

22 Jun 2025

Description

We're tipping our deerstalker cap to Basil Rathbone in celebration of his June 13th birthday. Of course, we'll hear him as Sherlock Holmes in three old time radio adventures from Baker Street - "Murder in the Casbah" (originally aired on Mutual on December 3, 1945), "The Indiscretion of Mr. Edwards" (originally aired on Mutual on February 4, 1946), and "The Adventure of the Uneasy Easy Chair" (originally aired on Mutual on May 13, 1946). Plus, he plays John Adams in his pre-presidential days as a lawyer defending British soldiers involved in the infamous Boston Massacre. We'll hear Rathbone in "John Yankee" from The Cavalcade of America (originally aired on NBC on August 29, 1950).
