Quick Draw McGraw-1963

Here is an 11-minute clip of "Quick Draw McGraw" from 1963 or so..This show was a personal favorite of mine, along with Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear and Other Hanna-Barbera favorites during my childhood years..especially 1965-66 when watching these shows during Captain Penny and eventually at 6:30 PM weeknights on WEWS-TV 5. This video includes opening and closing with Kellogg's sponsor tags, A Cocoa Krispies commercial starring Snagglepuss (Daws Butler) and what are called "interstitials",,Bits of comedy with the show's stars in between the cartoons, and a full Snooper and Blabber Cartoon.."Switch Witch" this cartoon first aired September 26, 1959. The clip appears to be from a later rerun..

Thanks to Dwight Frye who uploaded this clip to DailyMotion











Warner Home Video owns the rights to Quick Draw along with most other H-B (Hanna-Barbera) properties..Huck and Yogi have already been out on video along with many other lesser shows. Music rights are holding back possible release of Quick Draw..If any HB show needs to be out on video this is the one..

  1. From what I understand, the holdup with "Quick Draw McGraw" on DVD is the rights to the stock music used in the earliest episodes (mostly from the old Capitol library), which are now split among several different concerns.
