Box 13 presents “Hunt and Peck,” episode 29 of the classic mystery series, originally broadcast on March 6, 1949. Alan Ladd stars as mystery writer Dan Holiday, with Russell Hughes credited as writer and Vern Carstensen as director.
A condemned prisoner’s desperate letter gives Dan just 48 hours to re-examine a murder conviction. As execution nears, the investigation turns on a seemingly ordinary typed note—and the revealing difference between touch-typing and hunt-and-peck.
Box 13 presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
