This Month In Children's Media : September 2017 Part II
September 19, 1952 - 65 Years Ago
The Adventures of Superman starring George Reeves enters syndication. The TV series followed the very popular radio version (1940 - 1951) which starred Clayton "Bud" Collyer in the title role. After The Lone Ranger (1949 - 1957, which currently airs on the Cowboy Channel) and The Cisco Kid, Superman is still the third longest ongoing children's/juvenile adventure series in rerun history (currently airing on H&I).
If only someone would air reruns of Howdy Doody, Space Patrol, and Fury.
