For those of you who may have noticed the change in the title of this publication (formerly known as Lone Pine IN the Movies), it coincides with the name change and mission statement of the museum located for the last decade in Lone Pine, California. The official name of the Museum is now "The Museum of Western Film History" and the decision to change the name of the journal aligns with the broader focus of the Museum by allowing articles and essays not specific to Lone Pine. For example, the articles on Tim McCoy and Bill Elliott included in this edition would not have fit in past issues because neither actor worked in the immediate Lone Pine area.Originally conceived as a companion publication for the annual Western Film Festival in Lone Pine, the "magazine" has evolved more toward a journal of Western film history. Our authors, working from rare research material and a vast array of private photo collections, strive for 100% accuracy. However, as with any human endeavor, errors may occur, and constructive reader feedback is welcome.In this edition, Western historian John P. Langelier makes his first appearance in these pages with his essay regarding U.S. military history as portrayed in the movies of Tim McCoy. Film historian and Western film scholar Francis M. Nevins presents an overview covering the career of Robert N. Bradbury, a director with many Lone Pine films among his credits. Richard W. Bann, a regular contributor to our pages, presents his essay on the RKO film "Stagecoach Kid" starring Tim Holt. Chris Langley, film historian/writer happens to be Lone Pine's resident authority on the films made in and around the Eastern Sierra region goes to Death Valley to explore filmmaking in that region. Ed Hulse contributed two essays about the primary source of many stories used in B Westerns and other B films, namely the pulp magazines. Professional photographer Don Kelsen once again shares with us some of the photos he has taken of the locations, some familiar and some not so familiar, allowing us to again be reminded of how little things have changed in the Lone Pine area since the 1920s when the first films made in the region hit the theaters.
