NOTES: Gene Autry western that had a mere nine engagements on the Independent circuit, mostly as accompaniment to The Great Lover. Ranked lowly on all metrics and close to being the film that travelled, on average, the least distance from the city. Most likely would have received many plays on the Saturday matinee and country runs.
