Speed Gibson of the International Secret Police MP3 CD
Speed Gibson of the International Secret Police was a radio adventure
series written by Virginia Cooke. It was centered on the adventures of
Speed Gibson, a fifteen year old pilot who, through his uncle Clint
Barlow, becomes a member of the International Secret Police. Speed was
described as “a typical American boy: interested in short wave radio,
aviation and most of all - The International Secret Police.”
Speed Gibson of the International Secret Police ran weekly from January 2,
1937 to May 25, 1940. One hundred seventy eight episodes of the show were
produced with each episode lasting approximately fifteen minutes. Elliott
Lewis starred in the title role of Speed Gibson. Howard McNear played his
uncle Clint Barlow and John Gibson played his sidekick, Barney Dunlap,
known for using such catch phrases as “Suffering wangdoodles!” Other voice
actors contributing to the series were Hanley Stafford, Jack Mathers and
Sam Edwards. The opening theme contained the drone of an airplane and the
voice of an air traffic controller urgently calling, “Ceiling zero…
ceiling zero… ceiling zero!”
The series was divided into two stories. The first 100 episodes cover The
Menace of the Octopus. They highlight Speed’s induction into the
International Secret Police and the subsequent pursuit of the Octopus and
his gang throughout the Orient. The remaining 78 shows are titled Speed
Gibson And The Atlantian Syndicate. This series follows Speed as he
continues his adventures on the African continent and his quest to defeat
the Octopus.
The series is notable in that all 178 episodes have survived intact.
So sit back, and enjoy the next 40 hours and 178 episodes of adventure
with Speed Gibson of the International Secret Police.
