Despite the great loss, Pete Duel is forever immortalized in film and photographs — which means he’ll be with us forever.
Please visit Resources for links to sites that contain hundreds of images of Pete in all of his various incarnations. On this site, I offer you a healthy sampling of some of my favorites. I hope you enjoy them.
As Himself
Pete Duel’s natural charisma is apparent in photographs where he has been captured just being himself. He enjoyed his friends, his colleagues, his dogs, and the outdoors.
As Hannibal Heyes
Pete Duel’s most popular character was also his most photographed. The silver-tongued Hannibal Heyes is pictured here both on- and off-camera. Many of these photos feature his partner-in-crime, Kid Curry.
As Other Characters
From David Willis in Love on a Rooftop to Andy Rice in Cannon for Cordoba to Mike Brewer in The Hell With Heroes, Pete Duel was photographed in many of the roles he played.
Video Captures
Walk down Memory Lane with video captures from Pete Duel’s various incarnations, and especially from Alias Smith & Jones. If you capture a frame from a video of his, and would like to share it, please send it to me.
From Magazines
Although they are grainy and sometimes blemished, photographs from various magazines over the span of Pete Duel’s career are still just as precious.
Pete’s Places
Pictures of his childhood home, his Hollywood apartments, and his resting place are mingled with images of Pete at home.
Miscellaneous
A hodgepodge of items, but no less sentimental. Autographs from Pete Duel, as well as from Ben Murphy. Photo shoot images, and the like.
Universal Studios Western Lot
Many of the buildings used in Alias Smith & Jones are no longer in existence, but some still remain. Pictured at left is the 'bank' used in 'Everything Else You Can Steal.'
A special thank you to all of the contributors for donating pictures and other special memorabalia to this web site. Given that all but one of the photos in this Gallery were donated to the Pete Duel Memorial Site exclusively, and by fans who spent considerable time, labor and money in finding and preparing them, I ask that you download them for your own personal use but do not use them in other web sites. This does not apply to any of the video captures you'll find here (see Vidcaps). Thank you for your consideration in this matter. -Laura
On His Move to Hollywood
I didn’t come to Hollywood on a jet plane. I drove across the country. I didn’t stop in motels. I had a simple pup tent and put it up whenever I felt tired. I had allowed myself plenty of time to get into the Rockies. When I reached the mountains, it was raining. I set up the tent, dug trenches around it in the approved fashion and decided to wait it out. After 10 days, with everything I owned soggy, I decided to hell with it, and started on to California. I didn’t even see the Rockies, it was so overcast. 1971
