So on your tip,I started watching the first season on You Tube. It's even better than I remembered (then again I was only 10 in 1955).It seems like realistic period stories ( embellished though).A few hokie things now and then (keeping up with the old west preconceptions sometimes).A dollar back then was probably worth 50 times todays dollar. I'm keeping track of all the surrounding towns mentioned and the 'wanted' posters on the marshals office. I'm not sure how accurate some of the posters are relating to the 1870s. Black Bart was there and a few others. I don't expect complete accuracy but it would be interesting if some of those posters were in the same time frame. Ross' general store seemed fairly realistic for the 1870s.

I guess you noticed that I take an interest in details ...factual or not.

When I attended film school in Portland, early Gunsmoke episodes were what we were given to study, for editing - tinear 08:43:46 01/06/12 (1)
