Moon Over Africa: Programme Guide.
Professor Anton Edwards follows the possibility of Atlantis into an expedition filled with strange discoveries. Moon Over Africa uses a lost-world adventure’s escalating dangers to keep its party moving beyond the familiar.
Broadcast history.
Collector references place the syndicated quarter-hour serial in the 1930s, often around 1935–1938. OTRCAT explicitly treats its possible South African origin and American broadcast history as uncertain, rather than documenting one secure nationwide premiere.
Cast and creative team.
The professor, his daughter and their companions are fictional characters, not a verified cast list. Reliable performer, writer and producer credits for these transfers have not been established by the consulted sources, so popular catalogue guesses are not repeated as fact.
Where to begin.
Back to the Jungle · Passage of the Rock
These available recordings offer an introduction to this collection. Their current publication dates are separate from historical broadcast dates.
An interesting detail.
The expedition’s talking preserved head and search for Atlantis belong to imaginative adventure. The programme’s invented geography and period cultural portrayals should not be treated as an account of African history or communities.
Listening appeal.
Use the title sequence to follow the expedition from its beginning toward Back to the Jungle. Passage of the Rock is an available encounter, but a later obstacle makes more sense after the opening journey.
Collection and date notes.
HRV lists 26 public recordings. The twenty-six records match the commonly circulated serial set; exact original credits and local dates remain unassigned where unsupported. Current podcast dates describe later archive publication, separately from original broadcast dates.
