A box set containing 20 classic Westerns starring John Wayne. The titles are: John Ford`s The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962) and Donovan`s Reef (1963), Henry Hathaway`s The Sons Of Katie Elder (1965) and True Grit (1969), Howard Hawks` Hatari! (1962) and El Dorado (1966), and Don Siegel`s The Shootist (1976).

The break that John Wayne received by being cast in the lead role of Fox's large scale, widescreen 1930 western Sagebrush Trail failed to propel him into the ranks of major stars—it was not until 1939's Angel and the Badman that that would happen—and for the rest of the decade, he appeared in a succession of B films for both major and minor studios. Most of these films were westerns including some roles at Columbia supporting that company's current B western stars—Buck Jones and Tim McCoy; a series of six starring roles for Warner Brothers that relied on stock footage from the company's older Ken Maynard westerns; and a number of lead roles for Republic including seven entries in that company's popular "Three Mesquiteer" series. During the period 1933-1935, Wayne hooked up with Monogram Pictures to star in 16 low-budget westerns called "Lone Star Westerns." This is a much recommended set and gets 10 out of 10 in our view.
