Episode 23. In the early 'Sixties, producer Robin Morrow put together a more grown-up oriented syndication, Christmas Fantasy. Rather than a single serialized narrative, Fantasy was a collection of different stories, myths, legends linked by the Christmas theme. Because the episodes were not linked serially, if a listener found the broadcasts in the middle of the run there was no worry about catching up with the narrative. The series was sold to regional stations on thirteen vinyl disks, with a total of 26 episodes. However, given the time period and the quality of the program, it can be assumed that Mr. Morrow employed reel-to-reel tape technology to edit and produce the episodes. --www.otrcat.com
