Transcript
In the territory on West, there is just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers, and that's where the U.S. Marshal and the smell of gun smoke. 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 Marshal, the first man they looked for and the last they want to meet. It's a chancy job that makes a man watchful, and a little lonely. This is Frank Knight speaking for the world's most honored watch, Lawn Gene.
When the West was being won, Lawn Gene was there. All records show sales of Lawn Gene watches in the silver mining towns of Colorado and Nevada, the gold mining areas of California. A fine gold watch, preferably a lawn gene, was one of the first luxuries purchased by a lucky prospector, for then as now the name Long Jean identified the world's most honored
watch. Long Jean Watchers won their first World's Fair grand prize in 1878, one grand prize in Paris, Brussels, Philadelphia and at many other places. Right now, Long Jean Watchers are winning comparable successes in the accuracy competitions in European National Observatory.
Today, you'll needn't make a gold strike to own a lawn gene. Many beautiful marbles for ladies and gentlemen are priced as low as $75. Visit your authorized lawn gene with no jeweler. He will be honored to serve you.
Don't be hard. Shut me up, please. Open your door. Let him in. Don't be hard.
You want me hard? Will you want me hard? Don't don't worry, I'm getting me. Don't be hard. Don't be hard. I thought you were going to shoot him. Please stop it. We shot a dying man.
