Western Drama (1953 - 1954) starring Jimmy
Stewart
The
man in the saddle is angular and long-legged
his skin is sun-dyed brown
the gun in his holster is gray steel and rainbow mother-of-pearl,
its handle unmarked. People call them both "the Six
Shooter."
In this thoroughly entertaining series, James Stewart plays
a maverick who blunders into other people's troubles and
sometimes has to shoot his way out. His famous narration-in-whisper
of one particular climax (The
Silver Belt-Buckle) was a gripping moment of truth.
For other excellent western series, see also: Frontier
Gentleman, Gunsmoke,
Have Gun Will Travel,
and Luke Slaughter of Tombstone.
