Episode 040 The Trap Is Sprung
Broadcast: 1st August 1936
Added: Dec 24 2002
This fifteen minute juvenile adventure show, based on the Alex Raymond comic strip in Hearst’s Comic Weekly, was broadcast on a weekly basis for many years. Week-by-week it followed the trials and tribulations of Jungle Jim Bradley, the intrepid adventurer. Interestingly, the first episode of the series not only continued the story line of Flash Gordon, which was another Hearst strip, but also used the same theme music.
