The run
Sky King began on ABC in 1946 and moved to Mutual, following Schuyler "Sky" King, an Arizona rancher and former navy flyer who used his aircraft the Songbird to run down rustlers and fugitives. Eight surviving broadcasts from 1947 are held here, in the public domain, transferred from the Internet Archive.

The shape of the run
4 dated broadcasts across 6 years on the air, with 4 years where nothing is known to survive. Brightness is transfer quality; empty cells are months lost to time.
