Get ready for a classic good time with a pack of 1940s gritty detective dramas in the form of THE MICHAEL SHAYNE COLLECTION when it arrives on DVD March 20 from Fox Home Entertainment! The subject of 77 novels, over 300 short stories, a dozen films and radio programs, TV shows and even comic book appearances, one of pop culture's most successful private eyes makes his DVD debut in THE MICHAEL SHAYNE COLLECTION. Available on two flipper discs, the collection includes "Sleepers West" (1941), "San Francisco; Blue, White And Perfect" (1942); "The Man Who Wouldn't Die" (1942) and "Michael Shayne: Private Detective" (1940), the famous detective's film debut.

Making his first appearance in the 1939 novel "Dividend On Death" by David Dresser (published as Brett Halliday), Shayne is portrayed in these four classic noir adventures by Lloyd Nolan as the Irish-American gumshoe, walking the crime-ridden streets of Miami.
