”Here’s adventure! Here’s romance!” O. Henry’s famous “Robin Hood of the Old West” rides again in 20 more episodes of the popular and long-running series from radio’s golden age. Starring Jack Mather in the title role, with legendary radio and cartoon star Mel Blanc as his portly sidekick Pancho, each episode of “The Cisco Kid” delivers lighthearted western action and excitement.
The premise of the series is simple: often assumed to be outlaws, Cisco and Pancho use this misconception to their advantage to right whatever wrongs they come across; by the end of each show, having earned new respect, they once again hit the trail in search of adventure.
Today, “The Cisco Kid” remains delightful entertainment for all ages, particularly in these sparkling restorations from Radio Archives.
