Auction History Result 2x438 DESERT PURSUIT 3sh 1952 Wayne Morris & cowboys riding imported camels instead of horses! Date Sold 12/30/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Desert Pursuit, the 1952 George Blair evil-Arabs-vs-cowboys camel western starring Wayne Morris, Virginia Grey, George Tobias, Anthony Caruso, and John Doucette. Note that in the mid to late 1800s, it occurred to ranch owners to import camels to the Southwest desert areas, thinking they would fare better there than horses. Arab camel trainers were imported with them, and this is a little known but odd fact about that place in time. This movie not only centers on that, but it also has a trio of Arab villains, not very originally named Hassan, Kafan and Ghazili. It certainly is different from most of the B-westerns of this time!
