The Six Shooter – The Stampede

Broadcast 62 years ago today, on Sunday, October 4, 1953. The Six Shooter was still being heavily advertised by NBC and local radio stations. This week, it was part of a larger ad for several NBC programs. Here are two examples. The first is from the Albuquerque Journal, Albuquerque, NM (the ad has a slight mistake, in that Ponset is not a sheriff).

Albuquerque (NM) Journal 10-4-53

The next is from The Amarillo Sunday News-Globe, Amarillo, TX.

This article about the show appeared in the October, 1953, edition of a magazine published by radio station WOW, Omaha, NE.

In this week’s installment, Britt is helping the McAdams brothers – Ryfe, played by Lou Merrill, and Norm, played by James McCallion – drive their cattle to Abilene. He finds himself in the middle of a love triangle which leaves one of the McAdams dead.
