Although <I>Molle Mystery Theatre</I> was initially sponsored by Molle
Shaving Cream, other sponsors (such as Bayer Aspirin, Ironized Yeast,
Phillips Milk of Magnesia) also sponsored the program.  Sometimes, when it
was <I>not</I> sponsored by Molle, the program was called "Mystery
Theater".   The show  was first heard on NBC, on 9/7/43.  Time slot was
originally  Sunday nights at 9:00 PM, but was later moved to Tuesday at
9:00 PM, and Friday at 10:00 PM.  In 1948, the show moved to CBS (Tues,
8:00 PM), and in 1951, it moved to ABC, where it was called "Mark Sabre",
and heard on Wednesdays at either 8:00 PM or 9:30 PM.  Here is a 2:26  <A
