Golden Age of Television - Volume 1: Telephone Time

In the mid-1950s, the dramatic anthology series was one of the most popular TV formats. Many of these shows ("Kraft Television Theater," "Colgate Theater," "Philco Television Playhouse," "Goodyear Television Playhouse," etc.) were named after their corporate sponsors. "Telephone Time" is the Bell Telephone System's entry into the field, specializing in dramatic retellings of true stories. Many of the episodes were written by host John Nesbitt.
