(from the back-of-the-box text):
DRAGNET: Starring Jack Webb as Sergeant Joe Friday of the Los Angeles Police Department. Dragnet came to NBC radio in July of 1948 and ran until 1956. From the first DUM-DE-DUM-DUM of Walter Schumann's immortal theme, Dragnet reached a new high in police dramas. Webb and company were assisted by W.H. Parker, Los Angeles chief of police, who provided up to three officers as technical advisors on each show. It enjoyed a lengthy radio run, a full-length movie in 1954, and was also televised with great success.
