Roy Rogers story "Roy Rogers in Badlands Bullets"

Pencils Albert Micale (signed by Micale, full name still, splash panel. Very seldom were any artists for the Western Co./Dell Pub., permitted to sign their work, ESPECIALLY when it was applied to licensed characters such as Rogers.)
Notes The brand name "Stetson" was synonymous with the cowboy hat, and is used here. Trigger is returned to traditional color, and Roy's gear reverts back to yellow. Submitted by writer, September 15, 1947.
