I am glad stuff like this comes up. I had totally forgotten that about Hoppy's ranch. I especially
forgot about the brand. I Ebayed a 33 1/3 record I had played as a kid of a Hoppy story with
Lucky and Windy. I wasn't sure it was still good and I had a return offer on the deal. A lady bought
it and emailed me that it played perfectly. I was glad of that, but I haven't had a player for that
album for many a year. No 8 track any more either
I guess I am dating myself.
I have been buying tickets for a Hoppy gunrig that Happy Trails is raffling off for Roy and Dales kids.
It is a beauty and made by Bianchi. I probably have $80 worth of tickets for that raffle now. I need
more though and it comes with a couple new Colts too.
