Missing: Stokie The Bear (Dudley Do Right)

[Grant W.]

I know this is a long, long shot, but does anyone have or possibly know how to acquire this lost episode of Dudley Do Right? Back in the sixties, this episode was ordered to be destroyed by the U.S. Wildlife commision because it depicted a a take-off on Smokey The Bear that would instead "start" fires instead of preventing them. There is no known copy to exist.

Whoa there,
Even Keith Scott's excellent, all-consuming book on the Ward studios (The Moose That Roared) isn't so dismissive as to definitively say no copies are known. As I recall, Scott speculates that the Ward estate may privately retain a copy, so that's not the same as none.
It's never a good thing to say with certainty that no copies of something exist. As with plenty of Toby the Pup cartoons, one can always suddenly find oneself wrong!
