The Hopalong Cassidy Renaissance




Hopalong Cassidy seems to be experiencing quite the revival this year--with noteworthy collectible sales, an upcoming DVD boxed set release, and Gemstone Publishing's forthcoming book, Hopalong Cassidy: An American Legend.

In the past few months, an official Hopalong Cassidy holster set by All Metal Products CO. sold in very fine condition for $1,544.56, and a Hopalong Cassidy pocketwatch by U.S. Time, boxed and in near mint condition sold for $2,625.37.

Infinity Entertainment will release Hopalong Cassidy: The Complete Television Collection on August 7. The twelve-disc set will contain all 52 classic episodes along with ten bonus films starring Bill Boyd. Also included is the Public Hero #1 documentary from Starz Encore's Western Channel, featuring Hoppy's widow Grace Bradley Boyd, actor Dennis Weaver and film critic/historian Leonard Maltin. The set will retail for $79.98.

Gemstone is still seeking photographs of childhood Hoppy fans for its comprehensive book, Hopalong Cassidy: An American Legend, primarily authored by Grace Boyd. Send your photos to russ@russcochran.com for publishing consideration.
