Adventure (1951-1952)
 When you think of Robin Hood, do you
think of a valiant archer who puts the needs of others
before his own? Yes? Ok, now imagine that same Robin
Hood who double-deals, is a money-grubber, and is
"Hunted by men... Sought by WOMEN!" Unlike
Robin Hood, Harry Lime, played by Orson
Welles, will not hesitate to rob from the rich
and give... to himself!

out as a minor character in Graham Greene's novel
and successive film, The Third Man; his role
was small but very important to the story.
From the
rave reviews that the novel and the movie received
from international critics, a transcribed radio spin-off
began starring the very popular character, Harry Lime.
The show followed Lime's adventures throughout the
World which constituted him engaging in continent
hopping, skirt chasing, pick pocketing, breaking and
entering, and playing patsy, but he drew the line
on blackmail and murder. Go figure, a thief with a
conscience!
Please note this collection is also contained in the updated Orson Welles Collection.
