One of over a hundred Columbia features, mostly Westerns, sold to Hygo Television Films in the 1950s, who marketed them under the name of Gail Pictures; opening credits were redesigned, with some titles misspelled, the credit order of the players rearranged, some names misspelled, and new end titles attached, thus eliminating any evidence of their Columbia roots. Apparently, the original material was not retained in most of the cases, and the films have survived, even in the Sony library, only with these haphazardly created replacement opening and end credits.
This film's earliest documented telecast in Canada took place in Windsor ON Friday 13 January 1956 on CKLW (Channel 9); it first aired in New York City Tuesday 5 June 1956 on WATV (Channel 13), in Lancaster PA Saturday 18 August 1956 on WGAL (Channel 8), and in Washington DC Saturday 22 September 1956 on WNBW (Channel 4).
