The Guarnerius Caper

Third Season. Oct. 14 1970.


In this odd-ball episode, a Russian violinist loses his priceless Guarnerius violin, setting off a kind of government showdown over the interests inherent in the priceless instrument. The guys who stole the violin, however, are really strange low-lifes who seem modeled after the Manson family.

Highlight: when the goofy thieves are about to play baseball with the violin.
