Transcript

The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents... This is your FBI! ... This is your FBI! The Official Broadcast from the Files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Grants cried and presented as a public service... ...by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States...

Postcards inviting them to hear tonight's middle commercial. Tonight's commercial is an important one, something everyone should hear.
