You know why you can't find them in Australia? A guy I worked for, Ted Randal, 
went to Australia as a consultant to the radio stations and he got all that 
Grace Gibson stuff off the air. Grace didn't have too many kind words for Ted 
when she met him at a big radio syndicators get-together some years later. 
Meanwhile those programs stayed in circulation from European and Canadian 
distributors..I cleaned out a couple of warehouses in the 60s and 70s and found 
lots of that stuff. And I'll be glad to sell it. Matter of fact I'm going to 
start listing transcriptions over on 78-C in the next few days.
