Giveaway for Legends of Western Cinema Week 2022


Feast your eyes on the prizes for my giveaway this year!  I have had such a fun time finding and hoarding them for this event.

My movie selections for this have a theme this year -- they're all westerns where a woman plays a pivotal or central role.  We had a discussion last year at some point, somewhere, about how it's sometimes hard to find female-centric westerns, and so I wanted to make it a little easier for at least a few of you to see some of my favorites!

Okay, here's a run-down of the prizes:

Prize One:  The Rare Breed (1966) on DVD, starring Maureen O'Hara, James Stewart, and Brian Keith.  (You can read my review of it here.)  This DVD is brand new and unopened!

Prize Two:  Angel and the Badman (1947) on DVD, starring Gail Russell, John Wayne, and Harry Carey.  (You can read my review of it here.)  This DVD is brand new and unopened!

Prize Three:  Calamity Jane (1953) on DVD, starring Doris Day and Howard Keel.  (You can read my review of it here.)  This DVD is used -- it plays fine for me, but I cannot guarantee it will for you.

Prize Four:  Cat Ballou (1965) on DVD, starring Jane Fonda and Lee Marvin.  This DVD is used -- it plays fine for me, but I cannot guarantee that it will for you.

Prize Five:  Tall in the Saddle: Great Lines from Classic Westerns by Peggy Thompson and Saeko Usukawa.  This book is used, and has a little bending of the front cover, as you can see in the photo.

Prize Six:  Three stickers: two with silhouettes of cowgirls and one that says "I <3 Cowboys."  These are supposed to be dishwasher friendly and long-lasting. 

Prize Seven:  A set of western-themed nail art decals!  They do come with instructions.

If you have a hankering to win any of these prizes, simply use this handy widget:


You'll notice that one way to get extra entries is by leaving a comment on this post giving me your prize preferences. You are welcome to tell me which prizes you DO want to win, as well as any you DO NOT want to win (for instance, if you already own a movie or you never use nail art decals). I can't guarantee that winners will receive their first choice of a prize! But I do try to match them whenever I can.  If you don't tell me your prize preferences, and the widget chooses you as a winner, I will award you a random prize.

Another way to get extra entries is by participating in this blog party with a post of your own. That can be anything from filling out the official tag to writing a review, or whatever you dream up. My official kick-off post provides more information on ways to participate. 

This giveaway is open WORLDWIDE. If the USPS ships to your country, you are eligible. However, you must be 18 or older in order to enter, or have a parent's permission to provide your mailing address. PLEASE make sure you sign into the widget with an email address you check REGULARLY. 

This giveaway runs through 11:59pm EST on Friday, July 29, 2022. I will choose six winners on Saturday, July 30, and announce their names/handles here on my blog.  I will also use the email address provided to contact each winner and ask for their mailing address. Winners have one week to reply. If I do not receive a reply from a winner by Saturday, August 6, I will disqualify that winner and choose a new winner for that specific prize. 

This giveaway is not affiliated with Blogger, Google, the USPS, Rafflecopter, or anyone else. I purchased all prizes myself and will pay to ship them myself. All DVDs are REGION 1 discs and will not play in most DVD players on other continents. Please check the region specifications of your DVD player before you enter if you do not live in North America. 

Any questions? Good luck!!!

  5. I would say my preference is Tall in the Saddle considering I don't have a DVD player.

  6. I do not need Angel and Badman because I already own a copy. But other than that, my preferences are the three movies, in this order: The Rare Breed, Calamity Jane, Cat Ballou. But seriously, all focusing on a female character? Epic! You definitely saw us struggling last year, lol. After that it would be the book.

  7. Oh this is just so fun! Honestly I would be beyond excited to win any of the prizes, but I'll go with The Rare Breed, Calamity Jane, and then Tall in the Saddle as my top three.
