Description
Fred Harman Red Ryder Sunday Comic Strip Original Art dated 4-10-49 (United Features Syndicate, 1949). The Lone Ranger may have been more mysterious, and Roy Rogers may have been a better singer, but how many cowboy stars actually had a BB gun named after them? Just one -- Red Ryder. (The Daisy Red Ryder air-rifle is manufactured to this day). Want to know more about this star of movies, radio, and TV? He was the first adventure hero to have a kid sidekick. Little Beaver made the scene a full year before a certain Boy Wonder (Little Beaver was played by the infamous Robert Blake in 1944's "Tucson Raiders"). He even boasted one of the longest running Western comics ever published. His 17-year run was bested only by Marvel's Rawhide Kid and Kid Colt, Outlaw. The Sunday page offered here, by Red's creator, Fred Harman, is a great example of this classic strip. Featuring Red, Little Beaver, and Ol'-Timer, it would be hard to find a better piece for the true Western fan. This episode has an image area of 27" x 18", and it is in Very Good condition. Signed by Harman in the last panel.More information about Fred Harman. See also: Harman, Fred Artist.
