Old West Antiques now connected to the new Lone Ranger Movie

Jan. 25, 2012 - PRLog -- It's always exciting when you get to be a part (no matter how small a part) of something you love and Western Movies are one of those things for the owner of OldWestAntiques.Biz, Bob Wood.

Bob grew up on Western's in the early 1960's. Shows like; The Lone Ranger, Roy Rogers, Gunsmoke, Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, Wagon Train, ect, ect, ect. Today, after a successful career in Law Enforcement, Bob now owns and operates an online website dealing with most things Old West.  He has been collecting almost his entire life starting at the tender age of 9 when he found his first Native American arrowhead while playing near his parents home in Northeast Ohio. In addition to Indian Points he also collected, of all things, Western Comic books and Indian Head Pennies.

Today, his business of six years specializes in antique gambling equipment and that's what drew the interest of the folks working on pre-production for the new The Lone Ranger movie. A representative of the production company emailed Bob looking for specific gambling items to use in the movie which Bob happened to have on hand. A deal was struck and that's how Old West Antiques managed to become a very small part of this upcoming remake of one of the best known westerns ever produced.
