Loved, loved, loved this show.

Loved, loved, loved this show (repeating, I know). It is true, however. It is from my early childhood. Clarabell honked. No one ever expected him to talk. Howdy was wooden, and you could tell he was on strings. He was folksy, and had tiny little cowboy boots. Buffalo Bob was a warm character who could always make children welcome into the famous Peanut Gallery. I loved Princess Summerfallwinterspring. She was so beautiful and so nice. Dilly Dally was a slow cutie. Mr. Bluster was annoying but maybe with a heart of gold. Chief Thunderthud I have some kind of memory of as being gruff. I don't remember the on-show commercials or product placements, but they must have been subliminal and pleasing to me as part of the audience. I wish this show had gone on forever. My heart was totally broken when Buffalo Bob passed away.
