Lux Radio Theater broadcast The Emperor Waltz starring Bing Crosby and Ann Blyth on September 29, 1949. Traveling Salesman Virgil Smith (Bing Crosby) wants to sell his Grammophones in pre-WWI Austria. To enhance this, he especially wants to sell one to Emperor Franz Joseph, but at first the Austrian palace guards think he is carrying a bomb. He meets the Countess Johanna von Stolzenberg (Ann Blyth), and after the usual misunderstandings, falls in love with her, this is especially assisted by his dog. But the relation between a Countess and an ordinary U.S. citizen cannot work in Austria, that is the Emperor's opinion. Is he wrong?
