Product Description
One of the most unusual TV western heroes was Richard Boone's black-clad, erudite gunslinger-for-hire known only as "Paladin." After fighting in the Civil War, Paladin hung out his shingle outside San Francisco's Hotel Carlton and rode out whenever the call came in from someone in need, and, though he preferred to settle scores peacefully, it was never a prerequisite. Classic frontier drama co-created by Same Rolfe ("The Man from U.N.C.L.E.") was a popular CBS fixture from 1957 to 1963.225 episodes on 35 discs. 93 1/4 hrs. Standard; Soundtrack: English.

The hero simply has more dimensions than other western heroes.
And by him traveling around, the settings are different for each story, creating a great variety.
And the stories often have won or more subtleties, in addition to the central battle of good over bad.
The same progressive attitude informs the show's take on minorities. In one episode Paladin helps Hey Boy locate his brother, who, like other Chinese, is being abused by the railroad company where he works. This sympathetic portrayal was unique in its era, and the network at first refused to to air. Boone threatened to leave the series if it was not broadcast, and the network caved.
The treatment of other minorities -- Native Americans, blacks, east Indians, mixed race characters, Japanese, etc. -- is similarly supportive. Black characters demonstrated actual agency, rather than being reduced to servants, performers, and other background players. Boone also took on anti-Semitism when Judaism was never portrayed on the small screen. In one epispode he speaks in Hebrew and engages in a discussion of the Torah and its commentaries. Another celebrates a Jewish wedding.
Behind the scenes was equally as revolutionary. Women directed Have Gun, notedly Ida Lupino, who did 12 episodes. They wrote scripts. The show's crew (those who gave their best, Boone hated sloppy or lazy work) was treated very well by the star. He encouraged them to bring their families for extended on location shooting in northern California, Bend, New Mexico, and elsewhere.
Finally, many (but not all) of the scripts are outstanding. Rod Serling, Bruce Geller, Gene Rodenberry, and many others wrote for the show. The plots are not black and white, good versus evil. There is not always a "happy ending". Events and outcomes are nuanced, looking as much to the background and motivation of the characters as the action. And Paladin himself engages in introspection and thought, offering touching and insightful soliloquys on everything from feminity, to mortality, to the nature of his profession. For me these brief musings are the most brilliant part of the series.
The show ultimately reflects Boone's own ethos: equality, justice, rule of law, compassion, forgiveness, a passion for the arts, and broad and deep interest in literature and history.
This series is subtle, deep, and important. Yes, there are weak episodes. But overall it is outstanding, and remains unchallenged for treating characters and issues with a sympathy and understanding not repeated in broadcast television for many years afterwards.
Have Gun Will Travel needs to be celebrated and remembered and praised for its thoughtful treatment of important social issues. This is Richard Boone's masterpiece -- an outstanding actor, a principled and often prickly individual who saw the inequities of the world, and sought to remedy them.
