Goofs
When private investigator Bradford Galt strong-arms Fred Foss to reveal his home phone number, Foss replies, "CH-elsea 4-43510." However, according to the Manhattan phone book for 1946, they only had the CH-elsea 2 and CH-elsea 3 exchanges. However, they usually don't use existing phone numbers, instead use the 555 prefix which is reserved for movie making purposes. Therefore non-existing phone numbers are not subject as a factual mistake.
