After escaping a lynch mob, Gar Davis (Clint Walker) disguises himself in a dead man's clothes and stumbles upon a farm. When Comanches attack the homestead, Gar leaps into action to defend the hapless residents -- widow Celia Gray (Virginia Mayo) and her son Chad (Richard Eyer). A tenuous romance develops between Gar and Celia when he escorts the family to Fort Dobbs. But everything changes when Celia discovers the stranger is wearing her dead husband's jacket.
*Very few colorized prints of FORT DOBBS exist. After an extensive search we found what we believe to be the best surviving elements. We are pleased to make this available here on DVD. The quality is not great – and one should not expect state-of-the-art re-mastered quality - but it is a treasure for those who truly wish to see this wonderful western adventure!
