This is Gene Autry's first picture for Republic, and also the first directing job at Republic for long-time Autry and Roy Rogers director, Joseph Kane.
This picture was produced and copyrighted by Mascot Pictures in 1935. Its boss, Nat Levine opted to roll it into newly formed Republic Pictures, making it one of the company's first releases. With the creation of Republic, Mascot Pictures folded.
The Sons of the Pioneers did not actually make their motion picture debut in this film, along with members Roy Rogers and Bob Nolan, as previously claimed. The Sons of the Pioneers had already made their film debut in several films long before "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" was made.
