Today I was watching "The Round Up", season 2 episode 4, 29 September, 1956. The resemblance to the real story of Hickok in Abilene and his shooting of Phil Coe and then his own deputy was uncanny.
Intense for a TV Western in 1956, IMO.
Superfluous post, just for entertainment value.
Maybe the greatest actress ever made a guest appearance on "Gunsmoke", arguably, of course. Bette Davis. I have admired her since "The Petrified Forrest".
You guys have been far more steeped in these areas so I will ask, will anyone give me a line on the boot style, holster, and firearm Festus wears/uses?
I figure the gun is a GWA in .45 Colt, it appears to be a 4 3/4" version, the holster is an Arvo Ojala? What about the boots? Corrections are VERY welcomed.
I love "Gunsmoke" in both the Radio and Television versions.
