Above, O'Brien, Newill and Wilkerson are standing at the bar in this flimsy (tinderbox) saloon interior from WEST OF TEXAS (PRC, 1943). The gal singer is Frances Gladwin. Jack Rockwell is tending bar on the far left.

Arthur Alexander was the solo producer on BRAND OF THE DEVIL (PRC, 1944), the 14th entry in the Texas Rangers trio series ... and Newill's finale as a range hero.
