#39: The Case of the
Rolling Bones
Original Airdate: 06/28/58

Summary Edit

From The Perry Mason TV Show Book
Perry defends Daniel Reed on a murder charge and against his nephew, who wants to put the old man away in an insane asylum.

It's shades of Perrygate, when the lawyer thinks Burger has bugged his office. How else could it be that every time Perry mentions something either in his office or over the phone, Burger has the information almost immediately?

Trivia Edit

CARS: 1956 Buick Century 4dr hardtop, 3-tone: dark color, white, black top, Cameo: 1958 Chevrolet 4dr wagon, 2-tone: medium color & white. From The Cars by Greg Cockerill.

+Mary Anderson, who was probably best known for her role of Alice MacKenzie in Alfred Hitchcock's classic "Lifeboat", makes her only appearance in Perry Mason in this episode. She plays the wife of Arthur Space even though she is 12 years his junior, and looks more like 20 years his junior. Submitted by PaulDrake33.

+In this episode we see Perry and Della walking into the courtroom before the trial starts. This is one of the few times we see this, usually they are walking out of the courtroom. Submitted by PaulDrake33.

Alan Lee (Dave Kemp) was the newlyweds landlord in "Rear Window," a classic Hitchcock film that Raymond Burr played in. Submitted by billp. 15 November 2009.

Location: About 35 minutes into the episode Paul and Perry are in an airport in Nevada. In reality its Burbank Airport now Bob Hope Airport in Burbank. The tower has been modernized but the basic shape and horseshoe layout around the parking area is still the same. Burbank Airport also appears in Episodes #39, 99, 165 and #258.

Comments Edit

+Thus ends the first season of one of the greatest shows in television history. 39 hour long shows in 41 weeks. Raymond Burr appeared in every show, carrying the action each time. Could you imagine the movie stars of today working such grueling hours? I have read that Perry felt he owed it to the others in the cast to work this hard. Submitted by PaulDrake 33.
