- When Carson, whose real name was Michael Harrison, signed with Republic Pictures, studio head Herbert J. Yates thought that his name was too long to fit on theater marquees and would have to be changed. As he looked out his window he saw a used-car lot across the street called "Sunset Motors", and named his new cowboy star "Sunset". The new last name, "Carson", was in honor of legendary frontiersman Kit Carson.
- His horse's name was Cactus.
- In 1980 he was discovered to have abdominal cancer. He underwent surgery, and by 1982 it was in remission.
- Featured as the hero of "Cowboy Western Comics" and "Sunset Carson" comic books published by Charlton in 1950-1951.
- [in 1982] [Roy Rogers] and [Gene Autry] had the TV deals locked up, so I went on the road to places where good folks still care about clean western ethics.
- [on Roy Barcroft] One of the greatest you'd ever want to meet. He enjoyed a good laugh and was always telling jokes and pulling tricks on somebody. He enjoyed parties, hanging out with the guys and riding his motorcycle.
