Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Hopalong Cassidy was so popular that William Boyd licensed his own image for lunchboxes, making him one of Hollywood's first multimedia merchandising kings.
This was one of 66 Cassidy films Boyd made—he bought the rights to his own films in 1948 for $350,000, a gamble that paid off massively in television syndication.
