Syd Saylor (born Leo Sailor; March 24, 1895 – December 21, 1962) was an American comedic actor and movie cowboy sidekick who appeared in 395 films and TV series between 1926 and 1962. His father, George Sailor, was in San Francisco when the big 1906 San Francisco earthquake hit the area. He was never seen again. Syd was a member of several local actors groups and discovered he had a knack for making people laugh. An uncle was a captain in the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department—and a former member of Mack Sennett's comedy troupe, The Keystone Kops. Syd's uncle used his connections in the Hollywood film industry to get Syd's foot in the door to films. In the silent film days of the 1920s, he had his own series of two-reel shorts.
He went on to have a prolific career as a character actor, set apart from other character actors by his bulging eyes, stuttering speech, and a protruding Adam's apple. He appeared in everything from comedies to westerns, usually as the hero's comical sidekick.
The Duke got his first real role in 1930 in The Big Trail. This movie, released December 10, 1937, was his 59th movie. Stagecoach (1939) was still 5 movies away. _"Hell Town" also known as "Born to the West" was one of the final entries in Paramount's "Zane Grey" series. A remake of the 1926 Jack Holt silent of the same name, the film stars John Wayne as an irresponsible cowpoke named Rudd, who is constantly being bailed out of trouble by his sensible trail-boss cousin Fillmore (Johnny Mack Brown). The limit comes when Rudd loses Fillmore's cattle money to crooked gambler Hammond (Monte Blue). For a while, it looks as though a showdown between the two cousins is the next logical step, but blood's much thicker than money. Thanks to an error made by the Paramount publicity department in 193...

Branded a Coward (1935) Johnny Mack Brown, Billie Seward, Syd Saylor Safely from behind some shrubbery, Johnny Hume, a boy of 6 or 7, witnesses the slaughter of his mother, father and brother by the guns of a gang led by "the Cat". Twenty years later finds Johnny grown to manhood, an expert bronc rider and target shooter - but paralyzed with fearful memories in an actual gunfight. This is brought home to him when some outlaws stick up the local saloon and Johnny ends up cowering behind the bar. Accompanied by his sole pal, stuttering Oscar, Johnny hits the trail in shame. Along the way, he encounters a stage holdup and snaps out of his fear long enough to plug a couple of the highwaymen, chase the rest away, and wrest the runaway coach from a final thug. Aboard the coach is Ethel Carson, m...
