That is the assumption I would make about this release.

It's still early so more details might come out later, but it doesn't look like there will be any extras for the Western Classics collection. However, we're getting three excellent westerns in a collection with a MSRP of $19.98 which means some of us should be able to get it for $13.99 from places like Amazon.

Now, "The Big Trail" appears to have some extras including some docs and this release is listed for $19.98 too.
| The movie that made John Wayne a star, Raoul Walsh's The Big Trail, comes to DVD for the first time in its original 70 mm Widescreen version. This 2-disc Special Edition featuers both the 70 mm widescreen and the alternative standard fullscreen version, plus three new docs. |

Yes, I actually like it more than "Garden of Evil" with both films having the same director and two of the stars, Hayward and Marlowe.

THE GUNFIGHTER, GARDEN OF EVIL and RAWHIDE? Excellent!! And this is a rare instance of (mild) disagreement with Jim K... RAWHIDE is quite good (hey, Henry Hathaway directed it, so it can't be bad!); a well-handled suspense/western remake of the Fox gangster thriller, SHOW THEM NO MERCY! (1935).
Fox and MGM will certainly have my money in May.

No information about the specs. or bonus material except what's been stated on the DVDEmpire site for "The Big Trail". I expect that sometime between now and the first week of March, we'll see a press release from Fox. However, historically, their press releases have been inaccurate in their details.
