NOTES
The first reel, with an elaborate musical number, is taken from The Great Gabbo (1929) which had at least one sequence filmed in Multicolor.
When originally released, the first reel of The Girl From Calgary, approximately seven minutes including the title credits, was in 2-strip Magnacolor. Reviewers at the time commented on the poor quality of the color, registration problems, and lack of focus. In surviving prints, this sequence is in black-and-white, with a replaced title card that includes a 1951 copyright statement.
