more ODDITIES

A stagecoach in the 1945 Errol Flynn western SAN ANTONIO has framed pictures hanging on a back wall.  Huh?  This picture was co-written by two famous writers....W. R. Burnett (HIGH SIERRA, YELLOW SKY, THE ASPHALT JUNGLE  and Alan LeMay (REAP THE WILD WIND, THE SEARCHERS).

Having framed pictures on the walls of stagecoaches sounds a little strange. But, I've heard they actually did hang paintings and advertising posters in some coaches (if the line was an upscale one!). Not at all a particularly common thing; but, it did happen. Still, though, it would be jarring to see it in a movie!
