Gunsmoke Christmas Story - Radio's Last Great Dramatic Series
Around Dodge City and in the territory on west -- there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers -- and that's with a U.S. Marshall and the smell of "GUNSMOKE"!
"GUNSMOKE" starring William Conrad. The story of the violence that moved west with young America -- and the story of a man who moved with it,
I'm that man, Matt Dillon, United States Marshall -- the first man they look for and the last they want to meet. It's a chancy job -- and it makes a man watchful...and a little lonely.
Originally Broadcast 12/20/1952
