Here's a long lost article on TV's Zorro, Guy Williams. This comes from the same issue of the digest magazine Calling All Girls that provided the Bob Powell Christmas comic I posted last month. Click on the pics for a larger view, as usual.
I absolutely adored Guy Williams as Zorro when I was a child. It was already in reruns by then but I still had Official Disney Zorro gloves, coloring books and drawing pads. Leftover merchandising maybe? I used a thick black crayon to make my "Z's" all over the neighborhood.
Guy was also great as Captain Sinbad! With that grin and that charm, he was the epitome of a stereotypical swashbuckling hero...until he ended up in LOST IN SPACE playing straight man to a robot and the comic relief villain. I was/am a big LiS fan, also but it's still sad to see.
