What happens
Ken Thurston and Commander James Stevens, agents pursuing the mysterious man called X, search for a half-penny stamp said to carry secret information about a Middle East strategy committee. Their hunt begins in Cairo and Port Said, where they meet a stamp collector named Demetro Turos, a murdered passenger aboard a train, and a shady figure known as the man with the third green eye. Pagon, Ken's companion, is drugged and wakes aboard a yacht with a woman who claims to be Turos's wife. The episode is part of The Man Called X, a radio series from the early 1950s; this installment aired on February 19, 1952, with Herbert Marshall in the title role. The story is still unfolding in the portion of the transcript available.

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.
