Michael Shayne: Private Detective, the 1940 Eugene Forde mystery gambling comedy ("Laugh and thrill with fiction's favorite new sleuth.") starring Lloyd Nolan (in the title role as Michael Shayne), Marjorie Weaver, Joan Valerie, Walter Abel, Elizabeth Patterson, Donald MacBride, Douglass Dumbrille, and George Meeker. Note that "Michael Shayne: Private Detective" was the first in a series of twelve detective movies based on the character created by Brett Halliday. Lloyd Nolan played the character in the first seven movies between 1940 and 1942. There was then a 4 year gap and the series resumed in 1946, with Hugh Beaumont (best remembered as the father in TV's "Leave it to Beaver") taking over the role and he starred in five movies in 1946 and 1947.
