BOB BAKER RARE WESTERN MOVIE COLLECTION
Baker made an initial name for himself on radio. A chance audition for Universal
Pictures, which was on the lookout to groom a new singing cowboy star after the
meteoric success of Gene Autry, was his big break, beating out such other
sagebrush hopefuls as Roy Rogers. Astride his horse Apache, he made nine oaters
in 1938 and was ranked 10th in the "Top Ten Moneymaking Western Star" poll of
1939. The new-est singing hero of wild west lore…tuned up for a song or a fight!
Riding a painted pony like a flaming bullet-streak in the night! Two Double Feature
Discs!
