''The Man From Blackhawk'' is a Western television series starring Robert Rockwell that aired on the ABC television network from October 9, 1959, until September 9, 1960. The series was created by Academy Award winning screenwriter Stirling Silliphant. ==Overview== In ''The Man From Blackhawk'', Rockwell plays Sam Logan, an insurance investigator from the Blackhawk Insurance Company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''The Man from Blackhawk'' )〕 Logan scours the West investigating claims, verifying their accuracy, and seeking to root out fraud and dishonesty. Unlike most of his Western counterparts, Logan dresses like a dude with a suit and a drawstring tie instead of classic cowboy wear. He is also more inclined to use his fists than a gun. Apparently designed to take advantage of the popularity of private eye television series, such as ''Richard Diamond, Private Detective'' and ''77 Sunset Strip'', ''The Man From Blackhawk'' was a Screen Gems production. Beverly Garland is cast as Sarah Marshall, with Richard Rust as George Blackburn, in "Logan's Policy", the series premiere (October 9, 1959). Ruta Lee portrays Ginnie Thompson, a young woman due to collect her murdered father's life insurance policy, in "The Legacy" (December 25, 1959).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''The Man from Blackhawk'' )〕 Not all episodes are set in the American West.
