What happens
Clark Kent investigates the mysterious disappearance of Sidney Reichbrot, a British explorer, whose identity is in doubt. After Superman rescues Tumbleweed Jones from the river, a stranger offers money to find Tumbleweed and bring him in. Kent suspects someone has altered Sidney's hotel room to make it appear she never existed. Tumbleweed is hidden in a closet as a man arrives to take him away, and the episode ends with Tumbleweed's fate uncertain. The Adventures of Superman, a radio serial, aired on January 27, 1941.

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.
