(From Old Corral collection) Above from left to right are Al Bridge, Harry Carey Sr. and Yakima Canutt in a duotone lobby card from chapter 3 of THE DEVIL HORSE (Mascot, 1932). (Courtesy of Minard Coons) Above - Earl Dwire is given an assist by Harry Carey Sr. in GHOST TOWN (Commodore, 1936), one of the half-dozen B grade oaters Carey did for Ajax and Commodore in the mid 1930s. Dwire portrayed a toothless old codger and miner who gets ambushed by no-goods Lee Shumway, Chuck Morrison and Roger Williams. Carey saves Dwire's life ... and his stack of greenbacks. |

Ruth was married to actor Lou Yaconelli / Earl Douglas, the brother of B western comic and sidekick Frank Yaconelli. |
