Starring Joseph Kearns, Buddy Duncan and many more (26 quarter-hour episodes / 7 hours via digital download)

"The Cinnamon Bear" is arguably the best holiday series ever developed for radio. First heard in 1937, this wonderful holiday fantasy adventure serial was created and written by Glanville Heisch for children of all ages. It all starts with twins Judy and Jimmy Barton just before Christmas. Someone (or something) has taken the "Silver Star" for the top of their Christmas tree. The very Irish teddy bear, Paddy O'Cinnamon, comes to their rescue and tells them that the Crazy Quilt Dragon has taken the star to Maybeland. The three venture off to find the "Silver Star" and come face-to-face with many fantasy characters, including a dragon, a giant, a witch, a whale, a queen, a rhyming rabbit, a magician, cowboys, indians, and even pirates. The adventure concludes with a trip to the North Pole to meet Santa Claus himself! Many well-known radio actors lent their voices to this popular series, including Howard McNear, Gale Gordon, Verna Felton, Frank Nelson, Elliott Lewis and Lou Merrill with Joseph Kearns as the Crazy Quilt Dragon and Buddy Duncan as Paddy O’Cinnamon. Now, in collaboration with the Glanville Heisch estate, we bring you all 26 episodes of "The Cinnamon Bear" (7 hours in length), recorded directly from the original masters, for superb sound quality.
