Desc | Adventures Of Frank Merriwell | Adventure

Thanks

Heavy on nostalgia, these half hour episodes were based on dime novels of Gilbert Patton. The series follows Frank Merriwell, the Yale-attending brainy-brawny all-American youth, on a series of crime-fighting adventures. Scripts followed a similar theme to 1930's Frank Merriwell feature films starring Donald Briggs.For more all-American fun, see also Jack Armstrong, All American Boy.
