Jack Mather and Harry Lang play Cisco and Pancho in this old-time radio episode. The Cisco Kid ran on radio from 1942 until 1956, with Mather and Lang starring in some 600 episodes beginning in 1947.
The Robin Hood of the Old West has always been a favorite of mine, whether on radio or on television.
Here Cisco takes on a group of stage robbers before riding off into the sunset.
"Oh, Pancho!" "Oh, Cisco!"
Enjoy.

If you ever get to CA, it is fun to visit Leo Carillo's house there. Just sitting out in a dusty field for anyone to stroll through.
ReplyDeleteWeird...no one inhabits it? Is it some sort of monument to Carillo?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pointer to the radio episode...was the radio series better-written than the tv series was?
I doubt if one was better written than the other, Todd. When we are talking the heroes of our youth, quality takes a distant second to fond memories.
DeleteI have made the mistake of reviewing the likes of THE WACKY RACERS and LAND OF THE LOST as an adult...
