Jeff Regan Investigator (Starring Jack Webb) - "The Guy From Gower Gulch" (11-13-48)

The Guy From Gower Gulch (Aired November 13, 1948)

Jeff Regan and Joe Canto (Webb and Yarborough) were 'operatives' for the International Detective Bureau, a small private investigations firm in downtown Los Angeles, with often oversized ambitions. The oversized ambitions existed, for the most part, in the mind of Anthony J. Lyon, Esq. (Wilms Herbert). Lyon, a defrocked ambulance-chasing lawyer, assumed the lofty title of President of the International Detective Bureau in an effort to attract more upscale clients. The International in the title of the firm was simply more pretentious window-dressing. As far as we're aware, no operative of the firm ever left the U.S., with the possible exception of a brief excursion across the Mexico border to Tijuana. Indeed, we're aware of only a handful of 'operatives' ever mentioned during the run of the series.
