LASH LA RUE
The cowboy star signs this 13¾x10¾ promotional lobby card from the 1952 film The
Black Lash, in black ink
Inscribed Lobby Card Signed: “To Roy and Brenda/With Love and Best Wishes/Lash La
Rue/8.18.90” in black ink. Cowboy star Alfred "Lash" LaRue (1917-1996), who was
known as "King of the Bullwhip", introduced both the whip and the black outfit for which
he became known in the 1945 film, Song of Old Wyoming. He had small roles in Eddie
Dean westerns at PRC studios in the early 1940s. On the strength of his voluminous fan
mail, he was elevated to his own starring series in 1946. Billed as "Lash" in honor of his
skill with a 15-foot bullwhip, the actor played a black-clad do-gooder named Cheyenne, while
his comic sidekick was Al "Fuzzy" St. John. From 1946-1952, LaRue starred in 26 westerns.
In 1951, he headlined the 15-minute TV series Lash of the West, in which he would
introduce and narrate clips from his earlier films. Lightly toned. Edges bounded. Otherwise,
fine condition.
