In the films, William Powell, Warren William, Paul Lukas and Basil Rathbone starred as Vance.

On radio, he was voiced by Jose’ Ferrer, John Emery and Jackson Beck.

First heard for a short period on NBC radio in 1945-46 it appreciated success in syndication beginning in 1948 starring Jackson Beck.
