This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1928 and 1963, and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the copyright was not renewed.

The failure of the original copyright holder to renew the film's copyright resulted in it falling into public domain, meaning that virtually anyone could duplicate and sell a VHS/DVD copy of the film. Therefore, many of the versions of this film available on the market are either severely (and usually badly) edited and/or of extremely poor quality, having been duped from second- or third-generation (or more) copies of the film.

Interesting Trivia Related To Riders of Destiny

John Wayne could not sing. The songs were dubbed by Bill Bradbury, a son of director Robert N. Bradbury.

The pre-recorded songs that John Wayne is pantomiming to as Singing Sandy have, in reality, a four-string ukulele instrument accompanying - not a six-string guitar. Furthermore, the rapid strumming technique is indicative of Hawaiian music that reached its zenith of popularity in the 20s, and might be viewed as something of an anomaly compared to the many cowboy songs that would emerge within a few years of this movie's date.

Marlon Brando's line from The Godfather (1972) "I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse" was not an original term, as may be believed by some fans of the movie. In 'Riders of Destiny', Kincaid made a similar devious statement (see the Quotes section) nearly four decades before The Godfather (1972) was released.
