Modern series like Yellowstone, 1883, and That Dirty Black Bag prove that the Western is still alive and well. That being said, Westerns are more so novelty these days. But if you were to travel back in time to the 50s and 60s, though, and you would find that a sizable chunk of the programming on the airwaves during that time period was set in the Old Wild West.
One popular and highly rated Western from the late 50s and early 60s was Have Gun Will Travel. For its first four seasons, this CBS series rated number three or four in the Nielsen ratings. It was so popular, that it even spawned a successful radio version.
Have Gun Will Travel starred Richard Boone as the hero Paladin – a gentlemen mercenary who preferred to settle matters without violence but seldom ever got the chance. While his real name was never given, it was revealed that Paladin was previously a renowned dueling champion, a Civil War veteran, and a West Point grad.
Paladin handed out business cards featuring the phrase 'Have Gun Will Travel' and an engraving of a white knight chess piece. Whenever he was out working, he would change into a black set of Western-style attire while toting his custom-made .45 Caliber Colt Single Action revolver which he carried in a black leather holster featuring the same chess knight symbol on his card.
Have Gun Will Travel premiered in 1957 and ran until 1963. Since it's been well over a half-century since wrapping up, many of the actors that appeared in the program have since passed away. In this video, Facts Verse will reveal how each of the Have Gun Will Travel cast members passed away.
