As the Seattle office is aware and for information of Baltimore, during December, 1976, Allen Landsberg Productions, Los Angeles, California, produced a documentary film concerning captioned case for possible use as a pilot film in a contemplated series which was possibly to be captioned "Still At Large." This series would deal with still uncaptured criminals and would feature a reward offer of $10,000. If this series did not materialize, it was planned to utilize the documentary film in the current series captioned "In Search Of," also produced by Allen Landsberg Productions and narrated by television star Leonard Nimoy. Upon instructions from the Bureau, the Portland office cooperated in the filming of this documentary, which filming included some footage of and commentary by SA RALPH P. HIMMELSBACH, Portland case agent.
