Description

Please read this carefully. SGT. PRESTON OF THE YUKON  1972 Mark 56 Records.  An Original Radio Broadcast. CHALLENGE OF THE YUKON began as a 15-minute serial, airing locally on Detroit radio station WXYZ from 1938 until May 28, 1947, when the program acquired a sponsor, Quaker Oats, and the series, in a half-hour format, moved to the networks. The program aired on ABC from June 12, 1947, to December 30, 1949. It was then heard on The Mutual Broadcasting System from January 2, 1950, through the final broadcast on June 9, 1955. In November 1951, the title changed to SERGEANT PRESTON OF THE YUKON. Each episode has Sergeant Preston and Yukon King battling a new crisis, whether it be tracking down a murderer, a gang of thieves, or claim jumping miners. Yukon King, is, at times, a central character, with several episodes revolving around an event centering on him. During the course of the series, Preston successfully puts down a rebellion, and captures assassins. The most prominent radio actors to play the role of Sergeant Preston were Paul Sutton and Brace Beemer. The barks, whines, and howls of Yukon King were supplied by one of the station’s sound effects men, Dewey Cole, and following Cole’s death, by actor Ted Johnstone. The theme music for both the radio and television series was Emil von Reznicek’s overture to Donna Diana. The show’s episodes ended with the official pronouncement, “Well, King, this case is closed.” here are 2 exciting adventures from the Golden Age of Radio. Great cover painting of Sgt. Preston & his wonder dog, Yukon King. Rear panel has Liner Notes about the show, plus a history about it's new sponsor Coca-Cola. The covers are in Excellent condition, as is the vinyl.
