Stars Over Hollywood was broadcast on CBS from May 1941 to September 1954, one of the longest-running Saturday-morning dramatic anthologies. Unlike the film-adaptation shows of the period it commissioned original scripts, staffed with Hollywood players between pictures. These public-domain transfers come from the Old Time Radio Researchers collections.
