Three Sheet (41" x 79")
Very Fine- on Linen
Fox Film, 1917

This is a beautiful and colorful stone litho artwork of Tom Mix and another cowboy. This two-reeler was the first short Mix made for William Fox Studios, but sadly, it's one of many films that are no longer extant. Fortunately, this unique three sheet poster has survived. Mix is seen vying for Victoria Forde's affections but is potentially usurped by another suitor.

This stone litho comes in four panels as originally printed and has been professionally conserved on linen to address cross-fold separations, an extra horizontal crease, fold wear, light stains, creases, dust shadows, and unobtrusive smudges.

Tom Mix was a cowboy who rode in Wild West shows and was contracted by Selig Pictures to provide them with cowboys and Indians around 1910, before being invited to work in front of the cameras. He continued making short films with Selig until 1917, where he also wrote, directed, and acted. He was signed by Fox Films in 1917 and stayed with them until 1928, averaging five or so films a year and becoming one of Hollywood's highest-paid actors.

Estimate: $1,500 - 3,000
