Jack Kelly: The Dreaded Ruffled Shirt, or, Look What Else I Found! :)

Hi All!

Jack Kelly seems to be popping up all over YouTube lately. Here he is in "Enemies and Brothers", the second of two episodes of Laredo in which he appeared. His nom de pistolet may be "Bart" in this episode, but JK's not a good-guy gambler here. He's a no-good outlaw. JK is so good at playing bad, however, that he's still worth watching even as a baddie. Even in that shirt...


Speaking of shirts, the good guys are decked out in some of the most outlandish duds I've ever seen in a western. And, what's up with that jazzy score? And, that Texas Ranger with the mysterious European accent?


I'll ponder these questions some other time. Right now, here's "Enemies and Brothers":

Jack Kelly: Bart, Bret, and...Boone? :)

Hello Everyone!

Here's a pic of Bart and Bret. But, who's that tenderfoot in the middle with the white bucks? Another long-lost Maverick cousin?


Zoom out a little, and we can see, of course, that it's really Pat Boone, playing host to ABC's "top guns" (there's that phrase again!) Can you name the other Warner Bros. western stars shown here?


Jack Kelly: That Tall Dark Stranger Strikes Again! :)

Howdy Folks! As I've mentioned before, I especially love it whenever Jack Kelly is pictured as Bart Maverick wearing his dark cowboy clothes. So, I was delighted when the pic below recently joined the Kellection. I have a feeling you'll be delighted when you see it, too. :-)

Jack Kelly: Look What I Found! :)

It's Jack Kelly in an episode of Marcus Welby, MD! It was posted on YouTube by a Randolph Mantooth fan--they probably had no idea it would thrill JK fans, too! Enjoy! :-)

Jack Kelly: Kings Row - The Rest of the Story Pt. II

Howdy Everyone!

I'm sorry for not posting Part II of the Kings Row photo feature sooner. I've been having some problems with my router. It appears the router problems have been routed for the time being, so let's go on with the show:

The natty gentlemen pictured above are
"Doctors Mitchell (L, Jack Kelly) and Tower (Victor Jory)" who
are enjoying "a light moment in the mail order romance
between a lonely small-town widower and a scheming young
woman in the Kings Row story to be presented on Warner Brothers Presents, Tuesday, November 15 (1955), 7:30 p.m., EST, over ABC-TV."


JK in a tense scene from "Lady in Fear".


Dr. Mitchell appears puzzled by the unusual present a
young couple receives in "Wedding Gift". That's Dennis Hopper
as "Tod" and Natalie Wood as "Renee".


This is dialogue for the scene shown above,
from the actual script of "Wedding Gift".

Stay tuned for a birthday tribute to another talented member of the Kelly family.
