Great Hondo shots especially when he is about to fight that Apache Indian. Great shot of Michael Pate holding Hondos Cav hat.

 

some lobby cards..

 

Just TRY to find lobbycards and a movie posted for The Alamo-and to buy it, tou would have to sell your home, and your left arm and probably a few vertebrae-to get them.

 

Speaking of Duke, AMC is going to be playing more fo his classica soon. I forget the reason why? NOT that they need a reason to play his movies ;-0)

 

Ahh, Rio Grande ad I think this one was filmed at Moab Utah-where many of his Westerns were made, many also made in and near Durango Mexico. Shame that Claude Jarmin Jr quit the hollywood scene very early. He was a very good actor.

 

no trouble with that one, mm!!..

 

Found this if anyone is interested

Hi Ray, Vlad, thanks twice ;-)) Rat I forgot to mention that one of those Lobby Cards from The Alamo-that you posted, is one that I have a great still of thanks to Mr. Bills generosity. Vlad, thanks for the site. Ill be doing mopre checking into it.

 

A classic film..

 

The Magnificent Seven was great-the first one anyway. The other three were OK but sadly needed Steve McQueen and Yul Brynner in them though Brynner made the 2nd "Seven" movie.

 

like most, I think carl, sequels rarely match up to originals..

 

Best not mention the recent TV series

 

Hi Ray, Vladd,

Vladd, I hadnt know that TMS was a TV serries? What channel was it on?
