Although Molle Mystery Theatre 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 not 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 Molle Mystery
Theatre soundclip from the March 29, 1946 episode, complete with
commercial.
