Adventures of Sam Spade

The San Francisco private detective first appeared on the ABC radio network.  The character was created by Dashiell Hammett and made its debut in the pages of Black Mask in the serialized first part of The Maltese Falcon  in 1929.  The Maltese Falcon was produced as a motion picture starring Humphrey Bogart and premiered on 10/01/41.  On radio, for the first 221 broadcasts, Howard Duff took on the main role.  For the last 24 broadcasts Steven Dunne took over the role, but couldn’t compete with the strong performances turned in by Duff.
