Plot edit

When Danny loses his job working for the New York Morning Blade, Sach and Duke visit the editor to ask him to give Danny his job back. They agree to get a photo of gangster Frankie Arbo for the paper, and try several disguises to catch Arbo in the act before finally deciding to pose as gangsters themselves.

Remaining cast edit

Production edit

With the departure of Leo Gorcey, Hall had become the series' main attraction; thus the group was renamed Huntz Hall and the Bowery Boys with this film. It also marked the first appearance of Stanislaus 'Duke' Covelske, played by Stanley Clements. Other cast changes include Queenie Smith taking over the role of landlady Mrs. Kelly, and the addition of Danny Welton in his only appearance as a member of the gang.

Home media edit

Warner Archives released the film on made-to-order DVD in the United States as part of "The Bowery Boys, Volume Four" on August 26, 2014.
