Hopalong Cassidy #36

This October 1949 Fawcett issue brings William Boyd's silver-screen cowboy hero to the comics page in fine style, with a warm painted-photo cover showing Boyd in full Hopalong Cassidy regalia — black hat, dark shirt, sheriff's star, and tooled gun belt — standing proudly alongside his striking white horse in ornate bridle and tack. The banner promises "The White Rider!", a complete Western novelette that looks to put that magnificent horse front and center. At a dime a copy, this is classic Western entertainment from one of the genre's most recognizable star partnerships.
