What happens
Secret Service agent Steve Buchanan is sent to New York to track down Mr. 880, a counterfeiter who has eluded the department for ten years by printing only one-dollar bills. Steve works his way into the life of Anne Winslow, a French interpreter at the United Nations whom he suspects may lead him to the forger. Edmund Gwenn plays Skipper, an elderly neighbor, and Dana Andrews and Mala Powers star in this Lux Radio Theatre production broadcast on October 15, 1951. The episode is based on the 20th Century Fox film.

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.
