Let's get that 20 mule team to haul out those episodes.
14 November 2001 | by (Auburn, Me) – See all my reviews

The opening bugle call, the 20-mule team hauling the borax wagons out of the desert, The Old Ranger introducing the story and Rosemary DeCamp doing the commercials could only mean one thing, another episode of "Death Valley Days" was on the air. Where are all those episodes today?
