One of Hollywood's Most Beloved
Cowboys
|
Few Western stars stand as tall and
impressive as James Arness, one of the most recognized and beloved actors
from the Golden era of television and motion picture Westerns. For
many Western enthusiasts, James Arness is best remembered for his role as
Marshal Matt Dillon from Gunsmoke, the longest running dramatic
series in television history. Standing an imposing 6 feet 7 inches,
Arness was the big lawman with a big heart.
Arness' work garnered him many awards and recognitions. He was
designated an honorary U.S. Marshal on two occasions, was nominated for
three Emmy Awards, and has been inducted into the Cowboy Hall of Fame in
Oklahoma City. Today, millions of Americans still fondly recall the
golden era of the Westerns, and James Arness remains a favorite of fans
around the world.
Today, we are proud to honor one of America's favorite Western actors with
The James Arness Tribute Rifle. |
