Stories and art by Bill Woolfolk, Leonard Frank and Carl Pfeufer. Fawcett's tales of Western heroes from folklore and the movies. The opening caption puts it best: "Gold! The glittering yellow metal which has set the hearts of men aflame with avarice from time immemorial! Because of one man's greed, Tex Ritter, the indomitable Prairie Ranger, must play a deadly game of hide and seek with The Killer of Nugget Creek." Gabby Hayes loses his hearing after being thrown into a trough by a bucking bronco, and an outlaw mistakes him for the town doctor and kidnaps him. Monte Hale discovers a legendary arrow that is sort of a Native American Sword in the Stone, and whoever pulls it from the rock is the new chieftain.

Doctor!; Li'l Buck; Pop Potter; Big Bow and Little Arrow: Unwelcome Return; Cactus Brain; Tom Mix: The Perfect Alibi! 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
