The Gun of Liberty Valance

[@ronrobertson59]

The confrontation between Wayne and Marvin in the restaurant is one of the best scenes in any western. It and Jack Palance and Allen Ladd shootout in Shane are my favorites.

[@talkshow5100]

The Movie Shane has been Digitized into Blu-ray and it's awesome!

[@ronrobertson59]

@@talkshow5100 I'll have to check that out. I just watched shane last week for the 20th time on Amazon prime..

[@STEVEOMEMES]

Well every time i watch The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance now I will know some really great history. Joel THANK you SIR !!!

[@TUCOtheratt]

This was a very interesting video! I have often speculated that many of the firearms that appear in early westerns were old west originals.

[@billshepherd4331]

I had forgotten just how good/Bad Lee Marvin was in this movie. Thanks for reminding me!

[@kbjerke]

Awesome piece of history. Now I'll have to watch the movie again! (it's been a long time!) Thanks for the video!

[@elchoya8432]

i like to see a long episode on the guns of western movies,would like to see alan ladds long barreled nickle plated ivory handled .45 and jack palances two guns

[@Lad236]

I would love to collect movie memorabilia from all the old westerns and classic. A museum of course.

[@jeffsquires6620]

Lee Marvin stole the show in this one. If interested watch Donovan's Reef and Comancheroes for other Wayne and Marvin movies.

[@scvandy3129]

"jeffsquires6620," "stole the show" with assist of Marvin's incomparable, lethal, gutter-trash sidekicks, Lee Van Cleef @ 5:17 - 5:23 and Strother Martin (extreme left) @ 5:24 - 5:31 wherein Wayne infamously directs his right boot direct to Martin's face before he can conclude his bushwhack draw. Also . . . . The working, steam railroad passing through the RKO Ranch's western street in Encino plus the wide open spaces of Thousand Oaks for Jimmy Stewart's target practice 'open up' the sometime 'claustrophobic look' of the soundstage settings of "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance." . . . . . . 0:36 - 0:38 " . . . an underrated performance by Vera Miles [ ed. SO memorable from Ford's and Wayne's collaborative masterpiece, "The Searchers"]". Spot on; absolutely.

[@jeffsquires6620]

@@scvandy3129 John Wayne turned into a pussy in the end of this movie. The Searches is my favorite movie and my first son is named Ethan. However, Marvin's performance is the one that stands out in this movie.

[@Dustyutah]

Lee Marvin was an amazing man.

[@jasonarringotn2501]

Very cool, great movie.

[@kylewood8327]

Cool piece of real/hollywood history! LV was never really one of my favorite westerns but the more I’ve watched it over the years it has become a classic.

[@kurtschlarb9762]

I love this! As a kid when visiting a great-aunt I had access to some really old penny dreadful and dime novels about gunslingers, and bank robbers, and the law. The writing style of the day was just silly. This presenter must have had his script written in a similar style. Very original. Great video.

[@Rustebadge]

Silly must mean "authentic " for the era. Most contemporary writings are considered silly.

[@stevekynard6658]

Some very cool gun history there. Thank you.

[@jimpatton8148]

Joel is always informative and entertaining. I would like to see him more often.

[@davidkachel]

I'm convinced... the price will be too high to even bother to look!!! Good buildup.

[@828enigma6]

Best not let Baldwin anywhere near it.

4:24 - 4:28 With the notation of the two rubber Winchester carbines and rubber clones for Marvin's two SAA's we should anticipate a lot of viewers of "Liberty Valance," interested in gun lore, will be freeze framing pertinent points in playback of the action to ascertain "is it LIVE or Memorex?", i.e., the real deal, Winchester 1892 SRCs or Colt SAAs? Half as old as the movie, FOX'S fondly recalled and appreciated 1993 - 94 western adventure series "The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.," NEVER ONCE, in 27 episodes, had star Bruce Campbell pull his Winchester out of its scabbard attached to his saddle. But its 'look' was SO OBVIOUS it was a rubber woodstock of a full carbine clone. One wonders if Warner Bros. Television was too cheap to fork over the weekly rental on a carbine, if the 'hero' is only going to use his six-gun, why not just purchase a Win. 1892 wood stock and position it firmly within he exposed end of the scabbard? NO ONE would be the wiser. "Thank you, 'Rock Island Auction Company.'"

[@grassroot011]

Never knew they used rubber replicas for the guns. Ha, nuts.

[@blueduck9409]

That pistol will be unaffordable to the majority of the public.

[@feldweible]

Such it is with anything that people COLLECT be it firearms, cars, coins, bubble gum cards, spoons, etc.......

[@DK-gy7ll]

Supply and demand. You have one pistol and two million collectors who'd love to have it.

[@billhatcher2984]

Great job

[@steveshoemaker6347]

l would love to own this awesome Colt pistol.....Thanks Rock lsland Auction Company you are the very best = Thank y'all,,,,,,, Old F-4 Phantom ll pilot Shoe🇺🇸

I worked on Phantoms for over 10 years in the Corps. Loved those big fuel and hyd fluid leaking Thunder Pigs! Semper Fidelis!

[@jimjones9740]

Great movie 😊

[@coinhunter3758]

Now that's pretty damn cool!

[@mattsorensen404]

Very nice!

[@TheRetirednavy92]

Makes me wish I had the bucks

[@joelgoad6864]

how much?

[@RockIslandAuctionCompany]

The winning bidder will determine that at our August Premier Auction. Have you registered yet?

[@warmonger1362]

If you have to ask, you can't afford it.

[@rebelrat3594]

​@@warmonger1362 well it retailed for 30 dollars was probably bought by the prop company for 5 eh 4.50 it's a little old after all so a conservative estimate is 10 to 15000 I would wager

[@jimjones9740]

What about a Colt letter did it start life with a 7 1/2 barrel?

[@B25gunship]

The Colt factory letter in the video states it was shipped with a 4 3/4 inch barrel.

[@rotorheadv8]

I’m pretty sure that’s well out of my net worth range.

[@nimitz1739]

Looks like my Denix lol

[@miquelespertbaeta9539]

Denix. No thank you. Always with the screw on the grip. They were one piece grips, I think the 2 piece grip with screw is a second generation model of Colt .45 SAA.

[@mottlecah]

O K,it wasnt owned by Liberty Valance. ??

4:29 - 4:33 Since 'time immemorial,' the pre-printed, STANDARD Advisement on right side of invoice: "USE BLANK AMMUNITION ONLY." Had the personnel -- crew and cast -- only followed that common sense edict on the "Rust" set in New Mexico the resulting, fatal disaster never would have occurred. And actor Alec Baldwin's name would not FOREVER be linked with carelessness and loss of human life.

[@kbjerke]

I had a horse many years ago, long since deceased. You may beat him if you want.
