Charles Starrett as the Durango Kid in Production No. 346789. Actually, that's how the films were produced. They only had a production number, which would be on the cutting script and the clacker slate. The titles would then be put on after the film was finished. Sometimes, a pre-production title may have been assigned, but this would change after the film was finished. Starrett said himself that the secretaries sometimes would come with titles. That's how his horse Raider got his name. Think of how strange it would have been if they had released the film by its production number. Charles Starrett as the Durango Kid in Production No. 346789.
