Maverick TV Commercial

I've got one. They are very cool. I found it at the last local cap gun show. Most of them are missing the coin pocket these days because they were simply put in with contact cement, but still a cool belt. They were available in different sizes because the leather was stamped in a continuous roll and just cut to size.

wish I had about 1000 of them to sell on the internet!

That looks cool!  Wish I had one.

It's too bad that Mr.Garner didn't get any

of the profits from this merchandised item

and it lead to his leaving the show.

Kaiser Aluminum was the primary sponsor of "MAVERICK" during its early seasons on ABC, so this probably dates from the first season [1957-'58], and was a direct tie-in to the show. That's "The Kaiser Kid" {and his horse, "Quilty"}, who pitched Kaiser Aluminum Foil in their commercials at the time. Dick Beals is the voice of the "Kid"; Dick Tufeld is the announcer.
