Man Without a Gun
Man Without a Gun is an American Western television series produced by 20th Century Fox Television and presented on the NTA Film Network and in first-run syndication in the United States from 1957 to 1959. Set in the town of Yellowstone near Yellowstone National Park in the then Dakota Territory during the 1870s, the program starred Rex Reason as newspaper editor Adam MacLean, who brought miscreants to justice without violence or gunplay but through his Yellowstone Sentinel. Mort Mills co-starred as Marshal Frank Tallman, who intervened when the "pen" proved not to be "mightier than the sword".[1] Harry Harvey Sr., was cast in twenty-one episodes as Yellowstone Mayor George Dixon. The program is considered to have been unique because it showcased MacLean's moral ethics and common sense to bring outlaws to justice. The show was also used as a schoolroom to teach the youngsters of the 1950s about decency and the difference between right and wrong.[2] BackgroundThe 20th Century Fox Hour broadcast "Man of the Law", a pilot of Man Without a Gun.[3] Guest stars

ProductionThe series was created by Peter Packer.[1] Fifty-two 30-minute episodes were produced in 1957-1959,[7] with filming at Corriganville Movie Ranch and 20th Century-Fox.[3] Producers included Alan Armer and Mel Epstein.[8] Directors included Douglas Heyes.[4] Writers included Robert Leslie Bellem.[8] Critical responseThe trade publication Variety said in a review that a gun was unnecessary for the show's hero: "Muscles bulge against his clean white shirt and ham-hock fists advertise his fearsome virility, and he can suppy violence when necessary."[8] It added that Reason's brawny appearance sometimes interfered with the character's "brainy type" image, but "he seems to get by a good part of the time".[8] References
