Disclose Notes: First cover with all-blue outfit. The change took place because the immensely popular T.V. show, featuring Clayton Moore, portrayed The Lone Ranger wearing a blue shirt. The SCOOP website reports "Noted collector Harry Thomas of Sweetwater, TN, however, has pointed out that there are still a precious few issues of The Lone Ranger #37 that may've gotten printed in the transition still feature him in a red shirt. As you can imagine, these are incredibly rare and valuable collector's items!"
