This is a graphics intensive website. I chose to keep the images rather large for your viewing pleasure, instead of resizing them to matchbook sized pics which are horrible to view. The downside of these larger images is that page loading time may take a while if you still access the Internet via a dial-up modem. Page loading time should not be a problem for those with a cable or DSL high speed internet connection. This website does NOT utilize 'frames', but your browser must support 'tables' (which shouldn't be a problem).

The Old Corral website is a research project in progress and is dedicated to those wonderful cowboy heroes, heroines, sidekicks, heavies, and supporting players that rode the silver screen from the 1930s through the early 1950s in B westerns and cowboy cliffhangers. My goal is to simply rekindle memories of those great silver screen adventures, and to provide information, critique and education on the actors, actresses and films of the genre. As the Old Corral has expanded, it has been recognized as a comprehensive history and ongoing study of the B western, the western film performers, and the production companies and personnel.
