Here's Christine as she appeared in her brief role (as the "telegraph girl") in THE MAN FROM HEADQUARTERS (1942). L to R, we see Joan Woodbury (as "Ann," the female lead), Frank Albertson (as reporter "Larry Doyle," the "man" in the title), and Christine in this entertaining comic mystery. Ms. Woodbury was the screen's first "Brenda Starr" in a serial version, years before the Brooke Sheilds feature. Frank Albertson had a long film career that spanned the 1920's through the 1960's. He appeared as journeyman writer "Leo Davis" with the Marx Brothers in ROOM SERVICE (1938), and is, perhaps, best remembered today as the mayor in the film version of BYE, BYE, BIRDIE (1963), one of his last roles:

This is a publicity still from the Dave "Tex" O'Brien western BORDER BUCKEROOS (1943, Producers Releasing Corp.). In the shot are, L to R, Roy Brent (as "Trigger Farley"), Reed Howes (as a "Henchman"), prolific B Movie baddie Charles King in shadow (as "Rance Daggert"), Jack Ingram (as "Cole Medford"), Michael Vallon (as "Seth Higgins"), Christine (as co-heroine "Betty Clark"), Eleanor Counts (as "Marge Leonard"), and Jim Newill (as "Jim Steele"):

In this publicity still for THE RANGERS' ROUNDUP (1938) we see Christine (about 27 here) between Al "Fuzzy" St. John (left) and her leading man Fred Scott the "silvery-voiced baritone," as he was billed. Here they are, more than likely, pretending to sing for the studio photographer (Chris & Fred did sing a couple duets in the actual movie -- see the MUSIC Page):

A further shot of the Stan Laurel produced THE RANGER'S ROUNDUP (1938). In this still we see, L to R, Christine (as sweetheart "Mary"), Carl Mathews (as henchman"Durk"), and Fred Scott (as "Tex Duncan"):

Another still from the 1938 Spectrum Pictures production of THE RANGER'S ROUNDUP of Christine, Fred Scott's trusty steed "White King," and star Fred Scott himself:

This is a great publictiy shot for 1945's FRONTIER FEUD. It features, L to R, Johnny Mack Brown (as "Nevada Jack McKenzie" -- a role he played often), Christine (playing the heroine "Blanche Corey"), and Jack Ingram (as "Don Graham"). Raymond Hatton and Dennis Moore also starred in this Monogram film:




Here's a lobby card for COLORADO AMBUSH (1951). Besides Johnny Mack Brown and Christine, the other two people featured are Lois Hall (as "Janet Williams") and Myron Healy (as "Chet Murdock"); Myron was also the author of the film's screenplay, featuring a subtley poignant scene for himself and Chris. Down in the lower left corner, we see JMB making life hard on Lee Roberts:




I've recently (2/23/2001) verified that Christine did indeed perform a very small featured part in 1939's BLONDIE TAKES A VACATION. Many thanks to a fan of this site named Laura (please write in with your last name and take credit) who put the idea into my head back in Oct./2000 on this site's newly created Guestbook. Christine's involvement in the plot goes like this: the Bumsteads go to a struggling mountain lake resort for a vacation. One night "Baby Dumpling" lets a couple of skunks loose in the boiler/air conditioning room of a snooty rival resort. The skunk odor begins to circulate through the snooty resort's air system. Just at this time, we see the snooty dining room filled with guests, listening to the house singer (Chris) performing "Love in Bloom" in her beautiful soprano voice. Almost at once, while the sweet lyrics about the fragrance of love are rolling out of her mouth, her face begins to contort as the skunks make an impression on the place (it is a brief, but very effective, comic turn for Christine). The room quickly clears quite hilariously:

Johnny Mack Brown (playing "himself") grabs ahold of Christine (as "Mae Star") and tries to control her itchy trigger-finger in this publicity still, again for COLORADO AMBUSH. Though this film is now rarely seen, it contains, perhaps, Christine's finest dramatic performance:

In this lobby card for 1947's NEWS HOUNDS (featuring the Bowery Boys) we see in the foreground, from L to R, Tim Ryan (as "Jon Burke" -- Tim was also the film's co-author on the story and screenplay, not to mention Irene Ryan's ["Granny" on "The Beverly Hillbillies" television series] husband), Leo Gorcey (as "Slip Mahoney"), Robert Emmett Keane (as "Mack Snide"), Chris (as "Jane Ann Connelly"), and Bill Kennedy (as "Mark Morgan"). This film had a more involved plot compared to other Bowery Boys entries, and Christine portrayed a newspaper publisher being sued for libel by a crooked, "sports-fixing" politician:

This publicity still for 1947's GUN TALK features Christine as "Daisy" and Johnny Mack Brown as "Johnny McVey" -- this was a very faint picture that both Les Adams and I have tried to improve. If anyone out there has a better copy of this pic, please send it in. [UPDATE 3/12/2001 -- Thanks to a friend of this site named Scott Moseley for sending in an improved version of this pic]:

This pressbook ad-cut for FRONTIER FEUD (1945) (with Johnny Mack Brown in his "Nevada Jack McKenzie" role) features a shot of Christine, in the lower righthand corner, as "Blanche Corey":(Courtesy of Les Adams)



Craig Woods (as "Joel Edwards"), Christine (as "Kate Hilton") and Johnny Mack Brown (as "Nevada Jack McKenzie") in a publicity still from PARTNERS OF THE TRAIL (1944). This was one of her few "blonde" Monogram westerns where Christine wasn't cast as a saloonkeeper:

Johnny Mack Brown (again, as the "Nevada Jack McKenzie" character) and Christine (as "Alice Darcy") in a publicity still from 1944's WEST OF THE RIO GRANDE:

A pressbook ad-cut for 1947's LAND OF THE LAWLESS -- note that the actress here pictured is June Harrison (as "Donna Blake") and not Christine:

Christine, totin' a shootin' iron, means business in a publicity shot for the 1947 Johnny Mack Brown western LAND OF THE LAWLESS:

L to R, we have Gary Garrettt (seated on the lower left as "Clem"), Johnny Mack Brown (as "Johnny Mack"), Cactus Mack (as "Dave"), Christine (as saloonkeeper "Kansas City Kate"), Tris Coffin (as a gambler named "Cameo" seated and about to draw his gun), and Marshall Reed (as "Yuma") appearing in another publicity shot from LAND OF THE LAWLESS (1947). The man in the background behind Tris' head is an unidentified old coot. I remember Tris Coffin as a villain in one or more of the old George Reeves "Superman" TV episodes:

From WEST OF THE RIO GRANDE (1944) here's, L to R, Johnny Mack Brown, Christine,and Dennis Moore:

This is a publicity shot from the almost never seen Johnny Mack Brown western THE GENTLEMAN FROM TEXAS (1946). With Christine (as "Flo Vickert") and JMB (as "Johnny Macklin") is Reno Blair (as rancher "Diane Foster") on the right (Reno was usually billed as Reno Browne, but Monogram executives changed it when she worked with Johnny Mack Brown to avoid confusion [JMB's horse's name was also changed from Reno to Rebel in these pictures, for the same reason]) :

Here's a long ad-cut for WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE (1951). Pictured with Christine, L to R, are Whip Wilson and Fuzzy Knight. This would be Christine's final feature-length film:
