Jenkins, Pinky. Pinky Jenkins was created by H. Bedford-Jones (John Bradford, James Bronson, Denis Burke (I), Denis Burke (II), Burket & O’Neill, Peter J. Clancy, Dick Clews, Cosgrave & Lundgren, Crawford, Riley Dillon, Colin Haig, Jungle Girl, Tertius March, Say-and-See Smith, John Solomon, Strato-Shooters, Hugh Tyrone) and appeared in thirteen stories in Ace-High Magazine from 1924 to 1929, beginning with “Pinky Jenkins, Sheriff” (Ace-High Magazine, Apr. 1, 1924).

“Pinky” Jenkins and “Old John” Parker are an aging pair of ranchers in the Old West. They eventually become sheriff and deputy and have happy, alcoholic adventures. “Their spirit of frontier humor, their quaint philosophy, their utterly human qualities, their desire for hair-trigger adventure, their desire for hair-trigger adventure, their refusal to stay retired after a lifetime of excitement, their amazing courage, and their twin abilities of being able either to shoot or buy their way out of any trouble.”
