THis is a remake of Universal's 1939 "The Phantom Stage" starring Bob Baker. This entry in Universal's series of "Musical Westerns" shorts has Tex Williams, assisted by Deuce Spriggins and Smokey Rogers, bringing his six guns, fists and singing abilities against a gang of stage-robbing bandits. The culprits, aided by the crooked manager of the company, place a large box on top of the stagecoach in which a runty-henchman can hide. This film was later combined with another Tex Williams short, Coyote Canyon, and reissued as the feature-length "Tales of the West No.2.
