Gene Barry continues to portrait Bat Masterson in this third and final series of one fo the most exciting and well remembered westerns of the late 1950s.Relive the TV series in this 33 episodes of series three on four discs, of a man who became a legend in his own time. He wore a cane and a derby hat and was one of the best dressed lawmen to tame the Wild West in the 1880s.Roaming throughout the west he charmed the ladies, helped to right the wrongs of the unjustly accused, metered out the law to the lawless, in the progress made many friends and his enemies hated him with a vengeance.Now, in the Legend of the West, there stands a man above all the rest, the man who had the fastest gun, they called him Bat, Bat Masterson. With a gold-knobbed cane and his specially made six-shooter, his legend preceded him most of the time, and made many people cringe at the mere thought of his name.No western fan could possibly pass up the opportunity to own this exciting TV series that, with regret, lasted only three seasons. Each series was crammed to the hilt with half-hour shows and inspires me no matter how many times I watch one of the best series ever.
