90th Anniversary of the Lone Ranger

90th Anniversary of the Lone Ranger

This week, we are celebrating the Lone Ranger, as it is now 90 years since the series first debuted on radio on the 31st January 1933!

There could not possibly be a person alive today who has not heard, at some point in their life, of the Lone Ranger. Almost everything about the show became famous: the music, the silver bullets used by him, the great horse Silver, and his loyal friend Tonto astride his horse Scout.

From 1933 to 1956, the Lone Ranger rode the radio waves, and as one of the most successful radio programs in history, the Lone Ranger produced over 3,000 broadcasts.

I have written other editorials about the Lone Ranger over the years, which you can read by clicking here.

Happy listening my friends,

Ned Norris
