The Television Production Music Museum is attempting to identify the announcers for six television shows, including four Warner Brothers productions from the late 1950s/early 1960s: 77 Sunset Strip (1958-1964), The Roaring 20’s (1960-1962), Cheyenne (1955-1963) and Bourbon Street Beat (1959-1960). This isn’t something I was able to help with but I’m hoping somebody out there reading this may be able to help.

You can listen to audio files from the shows in question at the Museum’s website. The announcer can be heard listing the cast during the opening credits/opening theme song and occasionally promoting a sponsor’s products. Even production material from the Warner Bros. Archives at the University of Southern California couldn’t help uncover the identities of these mystery announcers. If you recognize any of the announcers please contact the Television Production Music Museum at the e-mail address found here.
