Step back into the golden age of radio with Abie's Irish Rose, a warm-hearted situation comedy that aired from 1942 to 1944. Sponsored by Drene Shampoo, this delightful series follows the young newlyweds Abie and Rosemary Levy, whose marriage between a Jewish man and an Irish Catholic lass sparks endless—but affectionate—family bickering. Originating from a Broadway sensation that ran for a record-breaking 2,327 performances beginning in 1922, this radio incarnation premiered on the Knickerbocker Playhouse and brings the same charm and gentle humor to the airwaves. With four rare recordings totaling about 1 hour and 51 minutes of playtime, this collection is a treasured find for OTR enthusiasts and collectors of vintage soap operas alike.
