The Old Cowpoke just corralled the full lineup for May 17:

As announced in the May 1 post, our A-Western will be “The Silver Whip.” Also for your viewing pleasure, Chapter 11 of the 1943 Republic serial “Daredevils Of The West” with Allan Lane and Kay Aldridge.

Rounding out the evening program of wonderful Western Films will be “Powdersmoke Range”  starring Harry Carey, Hoot Gibson, Guinn ‘Big Boy’ Williams, Bob Steele and Tom Tyler.

William Colt MacDonald penned the novel on which this film is based and it introduced The Three Mesquiteers.

Adele Buffington wrote the movie’s screenplay and Wallace Fox directed.

As always, you can click on “Events via Google Calendar” under “Club Links” in the sidebar on the left. The film lineup displays when you click on the meeting link.

See you at the McKimmon Center.

In her April 4 article on Western Film Preservation Society member Jim Sanders, News & Observer writer Sarah Nagem said,

Sanders’ artistic talent was apparent early on. He still has a picture he drew as a third-grader of a cowboy on a horse.

Jim continues to draw and paint the cowboy stars we enjoy watching on the big screen. Most months he contributes one of his originals for raffle during the club’s monthly meeting.

We plan to add a page of his work to this site later, so stay tuned. In the meantime, you can read the newspaper feature on Jim and his work here.

And we hope you enjoy this brief video tribute to the stars of the great westerns featuring Jim’s artwork.
