CHUCK CONNORS
The actor signed this black and white photograph depicting him as Lucas McCain in The
Rifleman
Photograph inscribed and signed: "Barbara/ Love/ Chuck/ Connors". B/w, 8x10. Captioned for
the CBN Cable Network. Connors has used the same capital "C" to form the initial letter of
his first and last names. Shown in character as Lucas McCain, his starring role in the
popular TV western The Rifleman (1958-1963). This popular series featured Connors as a
rancher trying to raise his son while continually called upon to protect his community. Chuck
Connors (1921-1992) was an American actor and professional athlete. He
played in both Major League Baseball (MLB) and in the Basketball Association
of America, the predecessor to the NBA. Only 12 people have competed in both
leagues. Following his career in sports, he grew into an even more famous
celebrity as an actor. His portrayal of single father Lucas McCain in The
Rifleman (1958-1963) is easily his most recognizable role; the show ran for
168 episodes over five seasons and follows the rancher and his son Mark
McCain (portrayed by Johnny Crawford) as they settle in at a new home in
North Fork, New Mexico Territory. He earned his first screen credit in Pat and
Mike in 1952, where he portrayed a police captain. After earning various
television and film credits throughout the 1950s, Connors beat out dozens of
other actors for the role of Lucas McCain. After The Rifleman ended, he
picked up starring roles in television shows Arrest and Trial (1963-1964),
Branded (1965-1966), and Cowboy in Africa (1967-1968). When none of these
shows achieved the level of success that The Rifleman did, Connors began to
focus on the big screen, with roles in Soylent Green (1973) and Airplane II:
The Sequel (1982). In a return to television, he had a memorable role in the
mini-series Roots (1977) as a plantation owner, one of the many antagonists of
the series. The popular actor was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of
Fame in 1984. Fine condition.
