Police Headquarters was a captivating radio show that focused on capturing the essence of 1930s crime dramas. The show followed a procedural format, where each 15-minute episode included an opening and closing music segment, as well as a commercial by the announcer. Episodes usually began with a citizen reporting a crime via telephone, followed by the police using their two-way radio system to set up a dragnet and track down criminals. Based on actual cases, the stories presented in the series featured crimes like murder and bank robbery, with the police identifying or apprehending the perpetrators. Though the cases may not have always been solved in real life, they were portrayed with successful resolutions on the show.</p><p>Broadcasted in 1932, Police Headquarters was produced by Bruce Eells Associates and syndicated on West Coast NBC radio stations. There were a total of 39 episodes produced, lasting about 15 minutes each. The show was known for providing a glimpse into the 1930s, making it interesting and engaging for listeners at the time. Some interesting trivia about the program is that while the stories were based on actual cases, they were always presented with a successful outcome on the show, regardless of the real-life result. The radio show is considered part of the "golden age of radio," but there is not much information about its production, actors, or other notable aspects.
