eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result #090 EMPTY SADDLES glass slide '36 Buck Jones Date Sold 2/19/2002Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) Empty Saddles, the 1936 Lesley Selander cowboy western ("From a Novel by Cherry Wilson") starring Buck Jones, Louise Brooks (the legendary beauty in one of her final roles), Harvey Clark, Gertrude Astor, Chas Middleton, Frank Campeau, Niles Welch, Lloyd Ingraham, Ben Corbett, and Robert Adair. Note that pre-talkie star Louise Brooks turned her back on Hollywood in 1929, and went to Europe and made some memorable films. In the early 1930s she attempted to return to Hollywood (minus her trademark flapper hairdo), but met with little success. She is prominently billed in this movie, but is not pictured on the posters. Also note that Buck Jones' white horse was named Silver (just like The Lone Ranger's later on!), and Silver made 73 movies with Buck Jones from 1922 until Jones' death in 1942 in the tragic Cocoanut Grove fire. But oddly, Silver was almost never billed on the posters for Buck Jones' movies as so many other famous horses (most especially Tom Mix's Tony) were! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Condition: very good. There is a tiny white mark in the black background above the image, but it does not affect the image itself. There are very minor stains on the cardboard holder, as is common with glass slides. The glass slide itself is in wonderful conditio. This glass slide is one of an amazing collection of 36 glass slides from films of one of the all-time great cowboy stars, Buck Jones! It would take a lifetime to find all of these glass slides again!
