    Subject:  The Lone Ranger Movie Revisited

    I don't intend to rehash the criticisms of the recent Lone Ranger movie, but
    those who have an interest in sound effects might find the following article
    that details the work that went into the sounds for the Lone Ranger movie as
    interesting as I did.  Here is the link:

    I realize that this is on the periphery of OTR, but hopefully Charlie will let
    it pass.
    Thank you!

    I wish to thank Al Hubin for kis kind comments about me, and my wife's
    passing. It's folk like Al and his wife that make the OTR hobby as wonderful
    as it is. My best to all of you, GL Mercer

    Subject:  Cinnamon Bear mystery ...

    For years, I'd heard that the name of the actor who played Jimmy Barton was a
    mystery.  But Wikipedia (which I understand should ONLY be taken with a grain
    of salt) now lists that his name was Tommy Carr.  Was this a recent find, or
    are we still unsure?

    Thanks!

    I remember seeing Winchell on television sponsored by Gruen watches.
    This would be about 1953 or so.

    Subject:  Nostalgia Digest begins its 40th year!

    The new Winter issue of Nostalgia Digest is back from the printer, and we can
    testify that no other magazine on the racks this month has Bob and Ray on the
    cover! You'll also find articles about Bea Benaderet, the films of Frank
    Capra, the Xmas traditions of Marshall Field's, terpsichorean tough guy
    George Raft and a special piece by Digest founder Chuck Schaden about the
    very first issue of this publication, which he began in 1974! (Hint: it was
    much smaller then.) Information is available at [removed].

    Subject:  Joseph Kearns and the Nostalgia Digest Podcast

    Charlie's reprinting of Dennis Crow's piece about the Cinnamon Bear reminded
    me that the brand-new Nostalgia Digest Podcast for December is devoted to the
    Crazy Quilt Dragon, the Whistler, the Man in Black, the guard of Jack Benny's
    [removed] and the man who played them all (and a few more besides), actor
    Joseph Kearns! You can download it any time through iTunes or by visiting
    [removed] you'll find a full year's
    worth of our podcasts, including our recent conversations with Bob Elliott
    and Joan Benny!

    Jim Scancarelli is at it again! Another homage to the Jack Benny show
    in this week's continuing strips of Gasoline Alley. The floorwalker
    appears every few months (or is it only at Christmastime?).
