Norman Corwin's "Now Is the Time"

Here's one we don't have. Lilly has the script, but not the discs.

The discs are one-sided. Click through the pictures to see the reverse side; that's quite something.

Nice catch, Terry. The full title is "Now is the Time: A Soliloquy for Election Year", and it's dated October 6th, 1944, so it's obviously a plug for Roosevelt. I'd like to hear it. Yes, that is a really unusual design on the back of the discs. I've never seen that before. I didn't see anything about Corwin, though.

Correction: Found Corwin. Here's a Radio Gold page that lists it (for sale?):

Lilly lists the script in their holdings here: http://www.indiana.edu/~liblilly/guides ... radio.html

I'm not tempted by this one, but I thought I'd throw it out here in case one of us completists were.
