Just purchased from Amazon RARE ROY ROGERS MOVIES VOL.5. It has 4 movies, but I needed 3 of them for my collection. The other two volumes are in my queue and hoping they'll go down in price. This volume dropped from $20 to $10, so I grabbed it.
The movie I watched today was: EYES OF TEXAS. Run time is supposed to be 70 min, was 70 min. but the box said 54 min. Had Republic Pictures front and back, but it was in B&W, with the word "color" blacked out. Picture was soft, but I've seen worse.
I did sample the other 3.
WALL STREET COWBOY. Run time supposed to be 66 min, was 56 min. box said 66 min. Picture soft, no front/back Republic Pictures.
SOUTHWARD HO. Run time supposed to be 58 min, was 53 min, box said 56 min. Picture soft, no front/back Republic Pictures.
FRONTIER PONY EXPRESS. Run time supposed to be 58 min, was 53 min, box said 60 in. MCA TV Ltd. at front, no Republic on back. Picture was pretty good.
This box set is put out by Reel Enterprises with a RE visible in the bottom right corner throughout the film on all the films.
All in all, not too bad. The other 2 volumes I want will probably be the same.
