One Cowboy has endured as one of the most popular and beloved American Legends ever to grace the silver screen … HOPALONG CASSIDY. An idol to millions of children for over sixty years, William Boyd starred as HOPALONG CASSIDY, the Western hero known for all time as, “The epitome of gallantry and fair play.” With non-stop action and spectacular stunts, the legend lives on as “Hoppy,” as he is known to his friends, battles crime and upholds justice with his quick-draw shooting, clear thinking, fists of steel, and steadfast character.
