Publisher's Summary

He walks the streets by night! He solves crimes! He loves the ladies! And, he sings, too! What more you could you want from a radio detective? Hear screen legend Dick Powell star in sixteen rollicking episodes as Richard Diamond, Private Detective.

A cut above the usual shamus, Rick is a charmer, has a snappy way with a wisecrack, and isn't afraid to use his fists. Diamond is flirtatious with female clients, but always remains true to his lady love. Helen Asher, his own sweet socialite, is playfully portrayed by Virginia Gregg, whose chemistry with Powell is positively peerless. This is romantic adventure at its most hardboiled!

    Love these old shows

    Aside from just the entertaining stories, I get a kick out of the original radio ads.
