Trivia This film is one of over 200 titles in the list of independent feature films made available for television presentation by Advance Television Pictures announced in Motion Picture Herald 4 April 1942. At this time, television broadcasting was in its infancy, almost totally curtailed by the advent of World War II, and would not continue to develop until 1945-1946. Its earliest documented television broadcast occurred Sunday 4 January 1942 on New York City's pioneer television station WNBT (Channel 1); after WWII, WNBT gave television viewers another look at it Tuesday 6 September 1949, and it was frequently shown thereafter. It first aired in Dallas Friday 23 September 1949 on freshly launched KBTV (Channel 8), in Atlanta Monday 3 October 1949 on WSB (Channel 8) and in Los Angeles Saturday 28 January 1950 on KECA (Channel 7).
