The Adventures of Frank Race was syndicated by Bruce Ells Productions. The show aired from 1949-1950.
"Before the war, Frank Race worked as an attorney, but he traded his law books for the cloak-and-dagger of the OSS. When the war was over, his former life was over too....adventure became his business!"
While Race ran his investigative business out of a New York City office, he and his sidekick, Mark Donovan, were seldom there. Their pursuit of wrong-doers led them to ex-Nazi jewel robbers in Berlin and Monte Carlo, import thieves in Tunis, etc. Most of his assignments came from international insurance companies thus making Race a combination of James Bond and Johnny Dollar.
Tom Collins played the lead for the first half of the run and then Paul Debrov took his place.
