Current Listening--The Mercury Theater War Of The Worlds

Current listening is some of the original broadcast from The Mercury Theater. The show is most famous for it's broadcast of H.G. Wells War Of The Worlds, which caused quite a stir. 1938 was not ready for a broadcast like that. That bit at around 18:00 through 18:30 really gave me a pretty good shock. Really intense stuff from a radio studio.
