About this film

(40 Episodes & 1 Audition) * Historically correct, "FORT LARAMIE" was a CBS Sustaining Western Drama created in 1955 by Producer/Director Norman MacDonnell. To protect series integrety, MacDonnell (creator of western-drama "Gunsmoke") insisted on historical accuracy in all episodes. When it came time to choose an actor to take on the role of the powerful lead character, Captain Lee Quince, MacDonnell, insisted the role go to 39 year old Canadian actor, Raymond Burr (Perry Mason and Ironside). * Two supporting characters were then added to the equation: Vic Perrin, as Sgt. Goers & Jack Moyles as Maj. Daggett. All original music was composed & conducted by Amerigo Moreno and the program Narrator of the drama was Dan Cubberly. * SOURCES: Times Past Old Time Radio Archives/Jerry Haendiges Vintage Radio Logs * Episodes with no properties 'data' are noted with a #1 at end of title (18, 19, 32, 38, 39).
