The Roy Rogers Museum in Brandon closed
and many of his collection (Trigger and Bullet etc) were auctioned off; many for huge sums of money. I remember when Roy and Dale had their home and museum near Victorville in CA. When he died, the collection was moved to Branson. I hope that Trigger ends up in Gene Autry's museum or in the Smithsonian.

This was several years ago, I was so sad then I heard Roy Jr had to close and sell. I found a website of The Ranch in NM that has some of his things. I believe they have Trigger, bullet and some other things ondisplay there. Is neat to know someone is enjoying them..The Ranch used to be the home of Imus and he sold it, it became a resort, like dude ranch sorta..

I suppose not many of us are left that would enjoy or even remember Roy Rogers and Dale Evans.....kinda sad.

Roy Rogers’ height of popularity was in the 1950s. That’s a very long time ago, basically two generations. Today’s young people have no idea who these characters were. Time marches on.

Happy Trails to You, Until We Meet Again!!!!!
I loved their theme song when they had their TV show in the fifties. I know I am dating myself but it was a care free time in life, watching TV or being out with my friends!!!!! There were a lot of Westerns on at the time and The Roy Rogers/Dale Evans show was a popular one among many!

@2blonde I think you are right, our generation especially me I guess, sure love my western movies. I grew up on them and still watch today.

I loved that show. I had a set of Dale Evans toy guns, vest and hat.
Loved to hear them sing "Happy Trails to You". Sweet memories.

One of my tv channels runs old tv shows including Roy & Dale, The Lone Ranger and such. I think I even saw some Gene Autry shows. I get a bang out of how much the outdoor scenes are alike when the actors meet and stop to talk while on their horses or to hide or to shoot at the bad guys. They all seem to stop in front of or behind the same fake big rocks with the same fake shubbery. Even the stage coaches when they get robbed all get robbed at the same spot.
