63 years ago today, actor George Reeves was found dead in his upstairs bedroom at his Benedict Canyon home of an alleged self-inflicted gunshot wound. 

It is amazing that Reeves still has a following of fans these 60+ years. More George Reeves Facebook fan pages are popping up all the time.

Today, there seems to be more Superman movies and television shows with different actors portraying the Man of Steel. Despite that, George Reeves and Christopher Reeve still lead the pack in fan esteem to this day.

Today, raise a glass in salute to George Reeves.
