This old time radio series began airing on June 23, 1944 and continued to run on NBC network until September of the same year. Blackie had a romantic interest in Mary Wesley played by the Lesley Woods. On April 11, 1945, Boston Blackie began airing on Mutual and other networks with Richard Kollmar taking on the role of Blackie. The series continued to run till October 25, 1950.
