by W. C. Tuttle
In W. C. Tuttle’s lively Western comedy, two hard-luck cowpunchers stumble into a motion-picture mishap in the hills near Piperock and find themselves enlisted in the search for a missing studio cougar. What begins as a gallant promise to a charming actress quickly turns into a night of traps, bravado, and frontier confusion. Full of sharp banter, slapstick peril, and early Hollywood absurdity, this archival tale captures the comic edge of the classic Western short story.
