Tombstone Territory: Season One

One of the best Western Series finally Available
This was my favorite series from the fifties,but Pat Conway, though an excellent actor is a forgotten man. I have always enjoyed Westerns and the interactions of Clay Hollister (Conway) and the editor of the Tombstone Epitaph Harris Claiborne(Richard Eastham) were fun and heartfelt. The stories are as fresh today as they were in the fifties. Both men could act,something that was missing in a lot of westerns at the time. Being a horsemen myself it is a pleasure to see that Pat Conway was an excellent horseman riding easy and bold in the saddle. His intense style worked well as the young, incorruptible and fast gun sheriff of Tombstone and Eastham as the mellow editor who gives him advice. You can see many of the stock western badmen in these episodes Robert Foulk, Myron Healy and John Doucette as well as a heartbreakingly young and beautiful Dyan Cannon in "the Injury" (unfortunately not on season 1) the series also has the usual locations for a fifties series, Iverson Ranch, Bronson...

Great Quality DVDs--Finally--of a Great Classic Show
This was my favorite western as a child and I have searched for quality DVD versions to watch it again. This is the DVD set that I and so many other fans have been looking for! They have obviously been copied from the film masters, as advertised. They may actually appear better on today's televisions which can render film images with higher resolution than the televisions and broadcast capabilities of the 1950s, when the show was broadcast. The images are crisp and with no defects. I hope the vendor will make the other two seasons available so I can complete my collection and enjoy all these classic episodes. The writing and the acting are superb and the stories are timeless. The show was filmed in the 1950s but has withstood the test of time surprisingly well.

"The Song-Made The Show Great"
Love this show, it was one of the best westerns ever on TV and the closing song was the added bonus that made it unforgettable.I watched this show every week as a kid and looked forward to the end when the song came on. I would have to place it in the top 5 of all time best western theme songs. I also have the complete set but will definitely be buying this release and hopefully the rest of the seasons. I highly reccommend this series, 2 great leads with some great guest stars and a fantastic closing song.
