John Drake Danger Man
Somportex Ltd. - 1965

Note:  This 72 card series was issued by Somportex Ltd. London, printed in
Denmark, and mainly issued in the UK and Canada in gum-vending machines. 
Card size is 2 1/4" x 3 1/8", and the fronts feature black-and-white photos from 
the TV series, which was marketed in the U.S. under the title "Secret Agent" 
when it was lengthened to full-hour episodes. The full title, as referred to on 
the card backs and in guides, is "John Drake Danger Man." Thanks much to 
Darin Dunham for the checklist!

("There's a man who lives a life of danger. To everyone he meets, he stays a 
stranger. ... With every move he makes, another chance he takes. Odds are he 
won't live to see tomorrow." [Chorus] "Secret Agent Man, Secret Agent Man.
They're giving you a number, and taking away your name.") I just recite the 
theme to remind you that John Drake was played by Patrick McGoohan, who 
had another series where having a number instead of a name was important ...
