Inside Detective (1950)

Rocky King Detective

I remember watching this in the early 50s, paired with Man Against Crime with Ralph Bellamy

Years later I was sure Columbo was fashioned after Rocky King. He wore a rumpled raincoat, a hat, and talked about and to his wife who was always behind the scenes and never appeared on screen. I don't remember the stories, only that I enjoyed them very much.

I assume it was placed in New York. I remember very well Rocky King's office where he used to hang up his coat and hat.

I was just a kid but enjoyed the mysteries. Black and white television and a 10-inch screen!

I remember liking Rocky King a little better then Man Against Crime.

Great memories.
