The tacks won't come out! Well, they went in ... maybe they're income tacks.

Not incredibly familiar with westerns, but...

Part 1
?
Milburn Stone
Harry Morgan?
Jay Silverheels
Dan Blocker
Strother Martin

No guesses for any of Part 2, but #2 and #4 look familiar.

see BeAStooge's reply for the correct list ... I was watching "Support Your Local Gunfighter" checked out from  the local library, and after seeing Dub Taylor in the movie, I realized how often I mistook him for Strother Martin (the warden in "Cool Hand Luke" ... "what we have heah is a failure to communicate")

Even though they don't remotely look alike, their western "Character actor" personas were one and the same.

And, for Paul Pain ... Jay Silverheels is Tonto, and Edgar Buchanan was Uncle Joe on Petticoat Junction, and Paul Ford was in many westerns and also the Mayor of River City in "The Music Man", and finally Jason Robards, Jr. was in "Once Upon a Time in the West".

Oh yes, Paul Pain ... Andy Devine is an actor you should look into, he's the quintessential western character actor, perhaps him and Gabby Hayes.

Well, I've only watched Gunsmoke and Bonanza.  I've seen others and wasn't too interested.  I always forget that Jay Silverheels is Tonto.  As for mainly movie actors (like Andy Devine), I have never seen any of the old Westerns except for GOLD RAIDERS (LOL).

Where's X Brands  ;D

BTW, did you know "tonto" is Spanish for "stupid"?

I'm on disc #4 of Pimsleur's Speak and read Spanish so far, and I haven't learned that word yet. Thanks for the heads up.
