More DescriptionThe erudite detective Philo Vance first appeared in a series of novels written by S. S. Van Dine. In his original incarnation, Vance was a stylish fop - but, by the time he made his way to radio, many of his arrogant edges had been smoothed out, giving him the charm and sophistication he often lacked on the printed page. In 1948, played by the inimitable Jackson Beck and supported by Joan Alexander, Vance deduced his way through 104 baffling mysteries in a syndicated half-hour series that would continue to be aired on local stations throughout the 1950s.
