The magazine was fortunate to have the support of many early Co Western actors who filled in as “Express Riders”.
From the Archives
Some of the "Riders" made personal appearances at Events, Dances, Rodeo's, War Bond Sales Rally's during the WW II war years, Equestrian Events, Fund Raisers and Parades. Some rode horses and others not. To help promote the idea of the Original Riders of the Pony Express of the old West, Spreading the Important News of the day.
