I Love A Mystery remains one of my favorite radio shows of all time. Here is a 1949 clip of Jack, Doc and Reggie as they try to outwit the Maestro and Nasha in the middle of the desert.

I Love A Mystery was an old-time radio program about three friends who ran a detective agency and traveled the world in search of adventure. The central characters, Jack Packard, Doc Long and Reggie York, met as mercenary soldiers fighting the Japanese in China. Later, they met again in San Francisco, where they decided to form the A-1 Detective Agency. Their motto was "No job too tough, No adventure too baffling." The stories straddled the genres of mystery, adventure and supernatural horror, and the plotlines often took them to exotic locales. Over the years, Jack was played by Michael Raffetto, Russell Thorson, Jay Novello and John McIntire. Doc was played by Barton Yarborough and Jim Boles. Reggie was portrayed by Walter Paterson and Tony Randall.
