For those
who thought “The Lone Ranger, Tonto and Me” book project had ridden off into
the sunset, think again. The book is back on track and in need of your help. We
are seeking stories about how you, the fan, have been affected by your interest
in The Lone Ranger. This book is a kind of “Chicken Soup for the Lone Ranger
Soul” if you will. We want to share your stories of how being a fan of the
masked man shaped your life. If you have stories of interactions with the many
actors who have played the parts of The Lone Ranger and Tonto, we want to hear
about them. Please include any photos you feel might help tell your story or
let people know who you are (mug shot). Most of the early submissions for the
book vanished a couple years ago in a computer crash. We still have the stories
from those who have submitted since then or sent their information by postal
mail. Please feel free to verify by email that we have your submission. The
deadline is November 30, 2012.
Please
email stories and pictures to lonerangerfanclub@sbcglobal.net
and put “Lone Ranger book” in the subject line. Postal submissions can be sent
to: Joe Southern, 1100 West Street, Rosenberg, TX 77471. Please note that we will make
every attempt to return pictures mailed to us with a SASE, but we cannot
guarantee safe return. Now, return with us to those thrilling days of
yesteryear…
