Trivia
The failure of the original copyright holder to renew the film's copyright resulted in it falling into public domain, meaning that virtually anyone could duplicate and sell a VHS/DVD copy of the film. Therefore, many of the versions of this film available on the market are either severely (and usually badly) edited and/or of extremely poor quality, having been duped from second- or third-generation (or more) copies of the film.

the usual ol western

It wouldn't be a western wthout Roy Rogers and/or Gabby Hayes, and they are both here. Hayes runs a snake oil and singalong side show, but gets run out of town by the local hoods. Bill Brady, one of his group is a sharp shot (Roy ), and that will come in handy later. Roy Acuff, Monty Blue, and Yak Canutt are in here as well. Everyone who has been mistreated or run out of town is gathering up and working together to fight back. When one of the thugs tries to get Brady, we see how corrupt the legal system is here in Deadwood. Carol Adams and Sally Payne co-star. It's way out of copyright, so in some parts,the sound and picture quality are turrible, turrible. When Gabby is robbed, the crew must come up with a plan to try to get his money back. Chasing, shooting. more chasing, more shooting. a very typical western. Story by James Webb, who will win the oscar for How the West was Won. They do pack a lot into this shortie from Republic Pictures. Filmed in the hills north of LA. Directed by Joe Kane, king of the westerns. worked with John Wayne, Roy Rogers, Gene Autry. Pretty good. showing on Film Detective Channel.
