Old West Telegraph Fun

Something a little different today.

This pre-code Western, "The Telegraph Trail" starring John Wayne, was made in 1932.
A fun adventure where the telegraph figures prominently 😃

Here is the storyline from IMDB

"Greedy opportunist Gus Lynch, in order to continue to gouge townsfolk for necessary supplies, convinces High Wolf and his Indian tribe that they need to prevent the completion of the new telegraph lines or their tribe will be wiped out by a new influx of white men. Receiving an incomplete message warning of a white man's involvement in the recent Indian uprisings, cavalry scout John Trent is sent in to rectify the situation."

What's not to like?


If you would like to have a gander at this "classic" there is a copy available to view here.


Enjoy
