Are Texas Terror and Hell Town uncut?

Texas Terror appears to be missing around 90 seconds. BttW/Hell Town is as complete as any other version in circulation and may be uncut, but the exact original RT is undetermined. Charting the state of John Wayne's early films is an absolute minefield. I'd suggest adding this footnote to both comparisons and others, where appropriate:

John Wayne made over 70 films during the 1930s, most of which were pre-superstardom B-movies. The rights and original materials of many of these have changed hands numerous times and are still under copyright, despite frequently being issued by so-called public domain companies. Many have also been re-edited and reissued often over the years, and had inappropriate new music scores added, particularly during the 1950s and 1980s. There are also many colorized versions dating from the 1980s-2000s.

For charting all these permutations, the Duke Filmography site is the most detailed resource online.
