Architect Frank Lloyd Wright prepared residential designs that were used in construction on Oboler’s property in the Santa Monica Mountains, near Malibu, California. Oboler and Wright’s relationship was personal as well as professional, and Oboler wrote magazine articles about his experiences with Wright as well as proposed film biographies of his friend. The Frank Lloyd Wright, Real Estate series documents all of this and also includes information on Oboler’s residence, such as real estate sale offerings of the property following Oboler’s death in 1987. | |||||||||||||

Papers in the Legal and Business Files series are primarily concerned with business ventures from Oboler’s post-radio career. Efforts to market 3-dimensional film techniques resulted in the founding of several companies, including Magic-Vuers, Inc., and the Tru-D Company. All aspects of the financing and operation of these companies, including daily operational expenses, are covered. There are also numerous proposals and contracts for Oboler books, television scripts, and commercial recordings of some of Oboler’s classic old-time radio stories. Legal papers contain lawsuits involving alleged copyright infringement of Oboler’s early radio work. | |||||||||||||
