Ron Hubbard") starring Don Terry, Gwen Gaze, Grant Withers, Hobart Bosworth, and William Farnum. This is a really remarkable serial, for an odd reason! As noted on the advertising, the story was written by L. Ron Hubbard. He had started writing for pulp magazines in 1934, and he had published a full-length novel, "Buckskin Brigades", in 1937. Following that, he went to Hollywood, and it is known for certain that he wrote the story that this serial was based on. The Church of Scientology claims that he wrote many other serials at this time, and the screenplays for feature films in the following years, but they are the only ones who believe this, and no substantiation can be found for it (and of course, they have a reason to make his pre-Scientology career seem as good as possible). But based on what is actually known, this is the ONLY movie that L. Ron Hubbard wrote! First release movie paper from it is incredibly rare. We have auctioned a single still from it (which did not mention Hubbard), a title card for chapter 7 and a 1951 re-release Spanish/US one-sheet (both credited Hubbard)!
