By Saturday, August 18, 1951, Superman, Inc. was nearing the half-way point in production of the first season. As was the custom in 1951, parts of several different episodes were filmed at the same time, and on this particular date, many of the process shots were filmed. First there was Kent and Hadley in the cockpit of the plane ("The Mind Machine"). Then George Reeves got into the uniform to deliver his warning to Connie and Ace atop the mountain ("The Stolen Costume"). And finally it was time for Kathy Williams (Isa Ashdown) to get her Metropolis fly-over and to give our hero his only onscreen kiss of the series ("The Birthday Letter"). But that's not all that went before the cameras on August 18. Also filmed were Perkins' reaction to Cusak's murder and his subsequent conversation with Kent.
