Description

Collection of 14 photos and 58 FDCs commemorating the famous Old Tucson Studio. Each cover measures 8.75 x 4 and features a cachet honoring Old Tucson with upper text noting that the cover was designed for the “Rural Branch Post Office,” which was established on December 2, 1968, with each cover postmarked with corresponding date. The photos, glossy and semi-glossy, range in size from 8 x 10 to 11 x 8.5, and feature actors, scenes, and filming sequences at Old Tucson, with actors including Kirk Douglas, Robert Mitchum, Carlos Romero, and Michael Keep, and film and television titles including Death Valley Days, High Noon, Part II: The Return of Will Kane, and The Gal Who Took the West. Five of the photos are framed to slightly larger sizes, with backing of two frames noting that they derive from the personal collection of Old Tucson founder Bob Shelton. In overall very good to fine condition, some scattered wear to photos and framed. Robert Shelton's Old Tucson Studios Collection
