The episode is part of The Green Hornet radio series, which aired on September 2, 1947.
Riverfront district of an unnamed city, including Rudolph's swap shop, Tim's importing office and the yacht Fondela.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
