Description by OLDIES.com:

Of all the early radio shows adopted from the classic newspaper comic pages in the '30s and '40s, none was more intriguing or exciting than the action-packed tales of Terry and the Pirates. Columbia Pictures brought Terry and the Pirates to the screen in fifteen thrill-packed episodes in 1940 featuring an excellent cast of screen favorites. Directed in a style that combined action and considerable comedy, director James W. Horne led the cast in an adventure that centered around the discovery of a vast hidden treasure. Along the treacherous 15-episode route we have contacts with mysterious "Tiger Men," a savage gorilla, exploding ammunition sheds and countless other thrills that totally captivated Saturday matinee audiences week after week.
