THE JOHN WAYNE COLLECTION from TGG (aka Diamond Entertainment Group) is five DVDs containing 13 hour-long b&w 'B' westerns that Duke made in the 1930s. You also get one full-length 1960s movie (in color), a TV documentary hosted by Mr. Wayne and a career retrospective. Also included are trivia, data for all films, photos and bios.
These public domain movies have not been restored, so transfer quality is dependent on source material. Anyone familiar with "value-priced" DVD sets should know what to expect here.
For more great old western stars like Hoot Gibson, Tex Ritter, Gene Autry, Ken Maynard, Roy Rogers and Johnny Mack Brown, you can't beat the FRONTIER JUSTICE 50 Movie Pack, from MILL CREEK ENTERTAINMENT.
Parenthetical numbers preceding titles are 1 to 10 viewer poll ratings found at a film research website.

Trying to complete my "Wayne" collection, I saw some titles I hadn't seen before. They turned out to be colorized versions of"Dawn Rider", "Paradise Valley" and "Winds of the Wastelands". The color is washed and not very good. To be fair, the original B&W versions are also included. Run away!

3 great Western classics in one volume.
Blue Steel - John Wayne is US Marshal Caruthers, who infiltrates a gang of outlaws threatening a town that's sitting on a huge vein of gold.
Directed by Robert N. Bradbury. Stars John Wayne, Gabby Hayes, Yakima Canutt
'Neath Arizona Skies - John Wayne is Chris Morrell, a man charged with the task of protecting a young Indian girl's oil rich property from the men who want to steal it.
Directed by Harry Frasier. Stars John Wayne, Yakima Canutt, Buffalo Bill, Jr.
Riders of Destiny - John Wayne is Singin' Sandy, a tuneful but tough undercover agent out to help besieged farmers regain their water rights. This is one of the few films in which the Duke is a singing cowboy - truly a unique side of his early career.
