PATSY MONTANA
Black and white publicity photograph of Patsy Montana with June
Storey and Gene Autry.
Photograph signed: "Patsy Montana". B/w, 10x8. Pictured with
June Storey and Gene Autry, whose names have been written above their images.
Ink note on verso (unknown hand): "Patsy Montana signed all three names for some
reason." Country singer Patsy Montana made her film debut with Autry and
Storey in the 1939 Republic Western, Colorado Sky. The film, which
also starred Autry's comic sidekick, Smiley Burnette, and Buster Crabbe, also
featured the CBS-KMBC Texas Rangers. The group, along with Autry, Burnette and
Montana, sang a number of songs in the film, including the title song, "Poor
Little Doggies" and "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart" (Montana's signature
song). Patsy Montana (1914-1996), was the first woman country singer to
have a million-selling single, "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart" (1935).
A star on Gene Autry's National Barn Dance radio program for many
years, Montana, who also yodeled and played organ, guitar and violin, had a
number of hits, including "Radio Sweetheart", "Montana Plains" and "I Want to Be
a Cowboy's Dream". After making her film debut in 1939's Colorado Sunset,
she appeared in numerous Western films in the 1940s. Lightly creased at mid-left
and right background. No show through from ink note on verso. Fine
condition.
