Everyone knows that the Lone Ranger was supposed to wear an iconic black mask. He actually did so for the last two years that he was on television--1956 and 1957, when the episodes were filmed in color. However, from 1949 through 1955, when the shows were shot in black-and-white, he sported purple face gear. On black-and-white TV, the purple appeared to have been even a blacker black than if an actual black mask had been used.
