Introducing a 31 disc City Confidential set

[wiseguy182]

wiseguy182 is proud to present his latest set: a 31 disc City Confidential set.
This is the first set of this show to be presented in the trading circuit.

Each episode of City Confidential focuses on an American city and presents a history of the city as well as a (in)famous crime that occured there, and how it affected the community. You get to hear from the players in the case, the investigators and the attorneys, and in regards to the city, you get to hear from local celebrities, town historians, news reporters and townsfolk (both prominent and otherwise). The show also features picteresque imagery as the the scenes from the local attractions are discussed, and hilariously pithy commentary from the wonderful Paul Winfield (and later, by Keith David). Here is a sampling of episodes:

There are 124 episodes in this collection (including a few double-length episodes I count as 2)

I loved watching this show. The narrator had a very nice voice to tell a murder story. Where did you get the set? I'd love one.
