The Six Shooter - "The Shooting of Wyatt King" (1954)

The Six Shooter, “The Shooting of Wyatt King” (episode 34), originally broadcast May 20, 1954. James Stewart stars as wandering gunman Britt Ponset in this NBC sustained Western, written by Frank Burt and produced and directed by Jack Johnstone. In Copper Springs, notorious outlaw Wyatt King—the Wyoming Kid—has been shot and captured, and the town is quick to credit Britt Ponset with the deed. Britt insists he has never even met King, but the wounded outlaw seems willing to support the story, sending Ponset in search of the truth behind his unwanted reputation. Old Time Western Radio presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
