West Lives Again

The Olde West isn’t dead yet. It recently had a re-birth in the founding of a real, old frontier town, Pioneertown by name, that will stand as a living monument to the West that was.

It is here that Columbia filmed its thrilling serial, “Cody of the Pony Express,” in which Jock O’Mahoney, Peggy Stewart and Dickie Moore are featured.
