 (From Old Corral image collection) Above - William Boyd and Ellison in a lobby card from Hoppy film #3, BAR 20 RIDES AGAIN (Paramount, 1935). This card is from the Sherman S. Krellberg re-issue of the film, and note that George Hayes is billed as "Gabby". Hayes didn't have that moniker when he worked in the Cassidy series. He became "Gabby" when he went to work at Republic Pictures.  (From Old Corral image collection) Above - James Ellison in his buckskins has the drop on Hayden, and on the far left is Raymond Hatton (wearing suit) and I. Stanford Jolley (in bar apron) in this lobby card from COLORADO RANGER (Lippert, 1950). Background performers include George Sowards (red shirt) and Carl Mathews (white hat behind Ellison).  (From Old Corral image collection) Above - Russell Hayden (on the left) and James Ellison (on the right) have the drop on everyone in the saloon in this lobby card from HOSTILE COUNTRY (Lippert, 1950). One-time hero Tom Tyler is seated at the table, next to the napping George J. Lewis.  (Courtesy of Virginia Herrick & Dick Madigan) Above - heroine Virginia Herrick is being romanced by star James Ellison in I KILLED GERONIMO (Eagle Lion, 1950).  (Courtesy of Les Adams) Above from left to right are Rand Brooks (back to camera), Lane Bradford, I. Stanford Jolley, James Ellison and Johnny Mack Brown in MAN FROM THE BLACK HILLS (Monogram, 1952). There were only a couple more Monograms before Brown hung up his spurs. And this was one of the final appearances for Ellison before retiring from film work and concentrating on his California home construction and contracting business. |
