As a result of legal complications involving the original version, Ceiling Zero (1936), which reared their ugly heads some time in the 1990s, this title has never been shown on cable TV, and that includes Turner Classic Movies, although it's in their library, nor has there ever been a VHS or DVD release. These are the only James Cagney and Ronald Reagan titles to remain legally unavailable for public viewing at this time. Before sinking into this legal quagmire, its earliest documented telecast took place in Tucson Tuesday 18 September 1956 on KDWI (Channel 9); it first aired in Sacramento CA Friday 19 October 1956 on KCRA (Channel 3, in Boston Saturday 27 October 1956 on WBZ (Channel 4), in Indianapolis Friday 21 December 1956 on WISH (Channel 8), in Scranton PA Tuesday 15 January 1957 on WARM (Channel 16), and in Bloomington IN Friday 18 January 1957 on WTTV (Channel 4).
