No offense to Jeff Thompson, but Curtis never owned the DS master tapes. ABC did and they were always in ABC's or Worldvision's (ABC's syndication wing) possession. Curtis tried to sue ABC to prove he owned them and to get possession of them, but he lost. That whole suit is what led to DS not being syndicated until 1975. Anyone need look no further than back issues of Variety from the '70s to read all the details.
