Suspense - "Murder in Black and White" (Old Time Radio, 1949)

About this episode

Suspense presents “Murder in Black and White,” episode 4, originally broadcast April 1, 1949. This archival recording features Edmund Gwenn in a darkly ironic story adapted for radio by Eli David from a short story by Anne Wormser and Jess Oppenheimer.

Meticulous businessman Rice Archer believes he has planned the perfect crime, complete with an airtight alibi and every detail recorded in advance. But while away at a hotel awaiting the news he expects, Archer finds that nothing is unfolding according to his carefully ordered plan.

Suspense presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
