Produced by Paramount's Harry sherman, ranking producer Of Westerns, Tombstone - the Town Too Tough to Die" now at the 20th Century, tells the gun-smoked, thrill packed story of Wyatt Earp, the greatest fighting peace marshal the West ever knew It's a story so exciting it'll keep you on the edge of your chair most of the time.

 There's trick gun-play, hard-rid- ing, fast shooting and many a tense moment, as the new film tells the story of Earps' fight on the gang of desperadoes who've made Tomb stone the toughest town in the state. How he brings the unruly ones to order makes the town safe to live in, forms the plot of the film.
