Anecdotes
The address on the envelope to the bonding company included "Los Angeles 56, California." This was before the Post Office Department (later, the U.S. Postal Service) introduced ZIP Codes in 1963. The "56" was a postal delivery zone within the city of Los Angeles. The Post Office Department implemented delivery zones in 1943. There were 66 postal zones in Los Angeles.

Gaffes
As Mr Hyett (senior) places the gun in the "dead" Mr Brewster's right hand, Brewster's fingers clearly flex and move in taking hold of it.

Jonathan Hyett: Well, Richard?
Richard Hyett: It all adds up, Dad. Oh, it adds up beautifully.
Jonathan Hyett: Miss Kirby, I want to see Mr. Brewster the moment he comes in.

Rare Opportunity to see Actor Frank Silvera

For some of us, seeing a black actor in a 50s TV show is a worthy use of time. Frank Silvera was an exceptionally elegant man who, thanks to B & W, was hired in a variety of rolls. He pulls this one off with great aplomb.

He was a trailblazer, and unfortunately died while working under the sink on a garbage disposal, via electrocution. Throw that breaker when working around water & electricity, folks. We lost a good one!
