Tex Ritter Western

A single issue from 1951, Tex Ritter Western is a one-shot comic from Export Publishing that capitalizes on the fame of the singing cowboy film star. The issue features a photographic cover of Tex Ritter himself, offering a brief, promotional tie-in to his popular Western persona. Though the series never continued beyond this lone installment, it stands as a minor, period-specific artifact of the mid-century crossover between Hollywood and comic book publishing.
