I'm here because Mr. Frank Gruber was the "story supervisor" on this series. That likely means that he cowrote the script with Mr. Butler. Mr. Gruber was a formidable and prolific author in the height of the days of pulp fiction and, later, paperbacks (Bantam, Ballatine, etc.) Gruber wrote alongside Raymond Chandler ("Double Indemnity"), Dashiell Hammet ("Thin Man") and Erle Stanley Gardner. Of course there were dozens of other excellent authors in all genres: crime, sci-fi, romance, westerns, and spy . . . uh, anyone remember James Bond? `
Great script here with great performances by all cast. Diane Brewster was a great character actor. 500,000 USD .in greenbacks as portrayed here would have been rare. Specie aka hard currency was still preferred by almost everyone.
@@rockhead11 *Russell Johnson also appeared in, "This Island Earth", one of the best 1950's sci-fi movies, filmed in color (unusual for the time) and considered a classic today.*
@Robert Hayden Thats weird, just saw him in an old horror flick called Crab monster. I went to see more of Pamela duncan who was in an episode of Wells fargo and there was the professor. LOL
When I was a kid we would have loved to see such a clear picture on our TV. The signal we picked up from the BBC in England was woeful poor. Now I can watch these episodes without needing to mess with the picture hold every five minutes.
Many TVs have controls to zoom, fill, justify, 4:3 and maybe more. You may find something you like if you are using Google Chromecast or other device to sent it to your TV. I think these are going the wrong way but "fill" may help.
Thank you for another great episode, just one of many great shows from yesteryear 😊
Nothing better than these western series feon the 50's, 60's and early 70's.
Never seen this one before. Loved it. Love ANY THING with Dale Roberson.
great old shows
I always enjoyed Dale Robertson. This reminds me of Death Valley Days!
My my my, the professor sure does get around. 😊
My brother and I preferred the Lone Ranger, the Range Rider and the Cisco Kid. However, this was our dad's favourite.
🤣🤣🤣

I'm surprised the professor wasn't able to use some coconuts and a palm tree to build a train engine to Laredo.

Love The Lone Ranger, Roy Rogers, Tom Selleck, & this hunk of a man, Dale Robertson. Hope the will be in heaven when I get there there
$500,000 back in 1876 would equal $14,347,009.35 today. That was a lot of currency for Jim to be carrying in bandit country.
❤🎉😊
The Professor!
7:24 I paused the video when I recognized Roy Hinkley aka The Professor.
classic
Wow...Gilligan's Island...as a young man
Yeah...the only other thing I’ve ever seen him in is really bad outer space/science fiction movies. So bad they’re funny.

Diane Brewster, Russel Johnson and Trevor Bardette.
@Robert Hayden

8:24 Another 3 hour tour.

It’s always disappointing when the print is stretched to fill the screen making everything fat and stretched.
😂 help me out here he carries that shillelagh
Jim Hardy’s stunt double looks nothing like him and the outfit is not the same half the time and it’s so obvious .😆
james l brooks was involved with this?
I don't like how it's it's streched 35%. It's almost unwatchable.
