Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle
Red Ryder lives! I'm sure you've seen A Christmas Story, the movie about the boy who wants a BB gun for Christmas. Well, Red Ryder was an actual comic strip and movie character. OpinionJournal has an article on the creator of Red Ryder, Fred Harman. Next time you're passing through Pagosa Springs, Colorado, stop in at the Fred Harman Museum and see his Red Ryder and Little Beaver comic strips. He also produced "350 oils, pen-and-ink drawings, and bronzes of rodeos, cowpokes and other rustic scenes, a handful of which are on display here."
