The failure of the original copyright holder to renew the film's copyright resulted in it falling into public domain, meaning that virtually anyone could duplicate and sell a VHS/DVD copy of the film. Therefore, many of the versions of this film available on the market are either severely (and usually badly) edited and/or of extremely poor quality, having been duped from second- or third-generation (or more) copies of the film.
This film received its earliest documented telecasts in the New York City area Saturday 26 July 1947 on WCBS (Channel 2) and in Washington DC Sunday 7 March 1948 on WMAL (Channel 7). In Los Angeles it was first telecast Sunday 13 February 1949 on KTLA (Channel 5).
