Gang Busters was an American dramatic radio program
heralded as "the only national program that brings you authentic
police case histories." It premiered as G-Men, sponsored by Chevrolet,
on July 20, 1935.
After the title was changed to Gang Busters January 15, 1936, the
show had a 21-year run through November 20, 1957. Beginning with
a barrage of loud sound effects — guns firing and tires squealing
— this intrusive introduction led to the popular catch phrase "came
on like Gang Busters."
The series dramatized FBI cases, which producer-director Phillips
H. Lord arranged in close association with Bureau director J. Edgar
Hoover. Hoover insisted that only closed cases would be used.
This collection of Gang Busters Greats includes 79
