Sunday Evening Videos: Johnny West, by MARX!

 

For reasons that will become apparent within the next week, tonight’s dose of PopCult video is a tribute to Johnny West and “The Best Of The West” action figures which were produced by Marx Toy Company in the 1960s and 1970s.  One bit of local interest, most of these figures were made at the Marx factory in Glen Dale, WV.

For more Western action, including some animated adventures of Johnny West made by fans, follow the jump…..
