Item Description
The Lone Ranger is one of the most popular and successful characters ever
created. He first appeared on radio in Detroit in 1933 and quickly jumped into
every medium possible. Over time he could be found in print, in newspapers, on
the screen, and eventually in television. He was popular wherever he appeared
and comics were no different. There were several different books published by
several publishers, but few came close to the quality of this Dell Giant. The
photo cover features Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels. These are the two actors
who may be the most closely identified with the characters of the Lone Ranger
and his faithful companion, Tonto. The movie was based on the popular TV show of
the day. It is notable for its excellent use of Technicolor. The book contains
art by Tom Gil. The covers Dell used in their Giants were heavier than a regular
comic cover and they were considerably less pliant. The size combined with the
type of cover they used means that it is very hard to find Dell Giants in good
condition. The pages are off-white to white. The book is CGC-certified 7.0
(FN/VF).
