N.Y: Grosset & Dunlap, 1946. Hardcover with dust jacket. Signed on half

Hart's longtime agent. A leading stuntman beginning in the late 1930s, American
actor JOHN HART (1917-2009) was getting major roles in Westerns and other
action films by the early 1950s (Kansas Territory, The Great
Adventures of Captain Kidd). Hart played the title role in TV's The
Lone Ranger in 52 of its early episodes (1950-1953),while
Clayton Moore was holding out for a higher salary. In later decades, he guest
starred frequently on TV, including appearances in six episodes of
Dallas (1979-1981). He reprised his Lone Ranger character on
episodes of The Greatest American Hero (1981) and Happy
Days (1982). FRAN STRIKER (1903-1962) wrote a series of Lone
Ranger adventure stories, based on the radio series by George Trendle which
first aired in 1933. Republic Pictures serialized the story twice, although most
prints of those films have disappeared. Many actors portrayed the masked man on
film and radio. John Hart and Clayton Moore shared the role on television, and
claims to the character afterwards. Pages lightly toned. Fine
condition.
