LASH LA RUE
The cowboy star signs this 13¾x10¾ promotional lobby card from the 1949 film Son of
Billy The Kid, in black ink
Inscribed Lobby Card Signed: “To Roy and Brenda/With Love and Best Wishes/Lash La Rue” 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 and creased. Edges bounded. Otherwise, fine
condition.
