"The first six volumes of THE GREAT AMERICAN WESTERN feature Randolph Scott (#1), Lee Van Cleef (#2), John Wayne (#3-4), Gene Autry (#5) and Roy Rogers (#6). The rest of the collection is nicely mixed. This massive western movie series showcases the 'B' western, and what's here are some fine examples indeed. With some compression, the ten DVDs hold a total of 44 titles. It's a cowboy's dream roundup at one amazing low price!
THE GREAT AMERICAN WESTERN Vol. 11-20 is the next offering in this series.
