Jim Hanvey, Detective
Sly but not slick - Jim Hanvey tops them all! Guy Kibbee ....his most loveable role!
Jim Hanvey is a genial but top-notch detective who has retired to his country home. An insurance company hires him to find a missing emerald so they won't have to pay out the $100,000 for which the jewel is insured. It doesn't take him long to find the emerald, but he discovers that finding it was the easy part; the difficult part is getting it back to its rightful owner, and he winds up involved in a murder in which an innocent man is framed.
Directed by Phil Rosen · Written by Olive Cooper
