Red Ryder, Volume 9: Marshal of Laredo / Tucson Raiders - DVD

The Red Ryder movies were based on the character created by Fred Harman for his newspaper comic strip, which ran from 1938 to 1964. Legend has it that Red Ryder and his faithful sidekick Little Beaver, would go wherever needed, to defend the innocent, bring crooks to justice and restore the peace. This double feature includes Marshal of Cripple Creek (1947) - the last film to star Lane in the title role - in which he rids a gold mining town of the outlaws who have been operating right under the nose of the sheriff. The second film, Oregon Trail Scouts (1947), recounts how Red was teamed up with his young sidekick, Little Beaver.
