Woodsy and Fellow Moonbasers
I was never really into collecting toys by Comansi and this one lone header bag of toys was sold off years ago.
Fortunately, I still have the photos. Fess Parker was awesome as Davy Crockett and I remember watching him on Disney's TV show back in the '50s. Later he would star in the TV show 'Daniel Boone' which I remember as well.
(Do you remember him as the hapless pilot incarcerated at the sanitarium in 'Them'?)

This still photo of Fess Parker was included in Marx (of Miami) 'Alamo' playsets as well as a character pose

In addition, the BMC #40000 Alamo Action Figures Set included a Davy Crockett figure (2nd row from bottom, 4th figure from the left)
Sorry. Can't see the photos, I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteFunny that Mish, I see them clearly on my mobile. Let me check my PC. I may have to re-post them.
DeleteI can't see them either Woodsy.
ReplyDeleteNope, no pix! SFZ
ReplyDeleteNo pics here, The Wild Frontier has swallowed them up! Bill
ReplyDeleteMy apologies folks, I tried cutting and pasting Ed's entire email rather than downloading each and every picture. You saw the results. Oddly enough it worked for me on my phone. Hopefully after downloading each pictures and posting them again its all worked out. Can you let me know of you can see the pictures. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteAll clear now for me Woodsy.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
they all came through now, both on my phone and PC - thanx Woodsy!
ReplyDeleteFunny name, 'Fess'.
ReplyDeleteIs it short for something, I wonder ?
Probably Fester Mish!
Delete"Parker was born in Fort Worth, Texas, and raised on a farm in Tom Green County near San Angelo.[5] His father – born Fess Parker but later added the initial "E." – was a tax assessor. The name Fess had been given to him in honor of the educator and politician Simeon D. Fess.[1] The future actor decided to change his name from F. E. Parker Jr. to Fess Elisha Parker Jr."
DeleteThose old playsets were so much fun, I recall them to this day! SFZ
ReplyDeleteTo this day they continue to fascinate me and give me joy! I'm just a kid at heart (a very old kid, but kid nevertheless LOL)
