The Lone Ranger - Man At Large

Just finished listening "The Lone Ranger - Man At Large" released by Radio Spirits.
Radio Spirits had the license to release episodes from "The Lone Ranger" radio show from radio's Golden Age for I believe for nearly 40 years or more. Radio Spirits used to release old time radio programs on cassette tapes. So it was a bit of a surprise when I discovered quite by accident that "The Lone Ranger - Man At Large" was the last collection of "The Lone Ranger" radio shows they released and all previously released collections of "The Lone Ranger" have been purged from their website and you can only find previously listened to collections of "The Lone Ranger" for sale on eBay for various prices.
On a rather curious side note, Disney no longer seems to own the rights to "The Lone Ranger." I may be wrong on this, but ONESMEDIA now offer a collection of "The Lone Ranger" radio shows.
Mom, Dad, and I always listened to "The Lone Ranger" collections when Radio Spirits released them and I did play this collection when I visited Mom and Dad at the Jacksonville National Cemetery.
If memory serves me correctly, Brace Beemer, who played The Lone Ranger and John Todd, who played Tonto, hold the record for playing the same character on a regular basis on radio. I think they surpassed Kelsey Grammer's record for playing Frazier on television.
My favorite episodes in this collection are: "Girl From St. Louis," "The White Buffalo," "A Cake For Skinner," "Matilda's Kittens," "Pop Travis' Letter," "The Bunkhouse Trap," "The Whimsical Bandit," and "Wild West Steamboats."
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!
TEN STARS!
