I remember watching that on Saturday mornings back in the sixties.

Hey guys, I remember watching this cartoon version of The Lone Ranger. I use to watch it on the ACTS Television Network (which is now The Hallmark Channel). and hopefully, it will come out on DVD.

Fantastic rendition of the Lone Ranger theme.

Ahhhh...childhood memories!

Veteran actor/announcer Marvin Miller was the opening narrator (and occasionally provided a voice or two in the episodes)- Vic Schoen created the new arrangement of Rossini's "William Tell Overture" and provided the show's rousing music score.

The Lonesome Stranger --YOO HOO SA-LIVER!

[@fromthesidelines]

True, 'KCO'. Marvin was THE veteran actor/announcer/narrator on radio, motion pictures and TV; he could also deliver various dialects, as well as portray "Michael Anthony" on "THE MILLONAIRE". He died in 1984....much more should be written about him!

@ebenezerhoary Defintely true. Another version came out when the "education" push was on the Saturday Morning Cartoons came out. With this series it was slightly affected. It pushed historical figures and landmarks.

It's coming out on DVD soon, along with Filmation's version of Zorro.
