The golden age of radio had incredible Western shows that kept Americans glued to their sets. Families gathered around their living room radios to hear Western heroes catch the bad guys and save ladies in distress. This collection includes Gregory Peck in an hour-long episode of The Gunfighter on the Screen Director's Playhouse; James Stewart as Brit Ponset, a.k.a. "the Six-Shooter"; William Holden in The Virginian on General Electric Theater; William Boyd as Hopalong Cassidy; William Conrad as US Marshal Matt Dillon on Gunsmoke; and many more!

Like its predecessor, Dragnet, Tales of the Texas Rangers adapted actual police cases for its broadcasts. Leading each week's investigation was Texas Ranger Jayce Pearson, portrayed by movie star Joel McCrea. Because the stories were set in the present, Pearson used the latest scientific techniques to identify criminals. Unlike Joe Friday, Pearson didn't have a regular partner, typically working with the local sheriff instead.
