The two Colts in the picture are not the original colts he used in the movies, both of those are sitting in a display in our office here in West TX along with the original Mask. My business partner had also won the bid on the holsters but it was refused by the owner and created quite a stink. We came back from that auction with several old Colts and Winchesters. This was 12 to 14 years ago. Something don’t smell right folks.

At a very young age, I got to meet Clayton Moore, chatted only for a minute or so, one of the questions I asked was whether his guns were real, (yeah dumb kid question I know)

4th row of pistols from the left, that’s a Colt Fluck Dragoon. There’s only about 30 of them still in existence.

The bottom Patterson in the first frame is another, it’s a revolving smoothbore shotgun.

I actually got to meet Hopalong "Hoppy" Cassidy as a kid, and was thrilled....he lived near my Dad's boss in Palm Desert and during a weekend trip, the boss drove us around the 'hood --- lo and behold, Hoppy was in his front yard; he gave my brothers and me little "Hoppy Money" aluminum tokens (wish I still had mine).

His house, cars, and gravel landscaping were exclusively in his trademark black and white.

Here's the "Hoppy House" in the 1960's, which would have been several years after we saw it.

I met Mr. Moore at a strip shopping mall grand opening. I went thinking that there would be hundreds in line.

There were thousands in line. Four nearby malls as well as the one he was in were jam packed full of cars. We waited three hours in line before we shook hands with him.

Nice guy, a real credit to the character he played. Everyone he met had his full attention.

"His outfit included a powder-blue shirt and pants, red kerchief, Stetson hat, boots, a gun belt and Colt pistols." The mask, I want the mask! Hanging on the wall.

I did not know that! At least she had the common decency to keep her politics in the closet and out of her work, which is unfortunately no longer the case. However, one now wonders...was the grape-stomping skit an expression of solidarity with the peasants? Was the candy-factory disaster an indictment of the alienation of labor and capital? ;)
