An Original Vintage Comic Book Cover (measures 7" x 10 1/4" [18 x 26 cm]) (Learn More) Whip Wilson was an actor from the 1940s to the 1950s. He was 37 when he made his first real movie, after having been a Marine in World War II. It was 1948, and Monogram Pictures had been looking for a replacement for Buck Jones, who had died in 1942, and Wilson bore a resemblance to Jones, and Monogram signed him to a contract without his having any experience. They gave him a whip like Lash La Rue, so he could have a cool name and a trademark, and he was very successful over the next five years, but in 1953, he basically retired and managed an apartment complex, passing away in 1964 at the age of 53.
