Screen Director's Playhouse, Star, Alan Ladd, Production, Lucky Jordan, Director, Frank Tuttle. This is the Screen Director's Playhouse, the Thursday night feature on NBC's All-Star Festival of Comedy, Music, Mystery and Drama. Brought to you by Chesterfield, the cigarette that has for you mildness with no unpleasant aftertaste, the cigarette that brings you Bing Crosby and Bob Hope,

the makers of Aniston for Fast Relief from the Pain of Headache, Neuritis and Eoralja, and by RCA Victor, world leader in radio, first in recorded music, first in television. The Knight the Screen Director's Playhouse is proud to present the outstanding hit Lucky Jordan, starring Alan Ladd in his original role of Lucky Jordan.

Now here's the first act of Lucky Jordan, starring Alan Ladd with our host narrator, the distinguished director, Mr. King Vider. Lucky John was a hudler, a two-fisted gangster and a racketeer. And like all mob leaders, he lived in constant fear of his life.
