This is not a new release, just one I didn’t know about — so it might as well be a new release. Last week, I wrote about the terrific B Westerns Wild Bill Elliott made for Monogram and Allied Artists in the early 50s.
Well, I just found out that one of them, The Longhorn (1952), is available from VCI Entertainment. It’s paired with Stampede (1936), Charles Starrett’s first Western — in a set called Cowboy Heroes Volume 1.
Not sure if it’s presented in sepia tone or not, but after I get a copy, I’ll let you know.
The copy from VCI Entertainment is not “Sepia tone” –
it is a good copy in black and white.
