An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) The Cherokee Strip, the 1925 silent cowboy western ("A story of Oklahoma's last big open cattle range"; "Miller Bros. 101 Ranch Historical Drama"; "Historical drama of America's last and greatest dash for homesteads"; about the Land Run of 1983, also known as the Cherokee Outlet Opening or the Cherokee Strip Land Run) starring Herbert Bethew, and Lucile Mulhall. Note that the Miller Bros. 101 Ranch was a massive 110,000 acre ranch in Oklahoma, which, at the turn of the 20th century, was the largest privately owned ranch at that time. It became famous in 1907 when they opened a Wild West Show, which later toured the country and Europe. Oil was found on the ranch in the 1920s, and led to the creation of an oil company, which ultimately became ConocoPhillips. But the Wild West Show fell on hard times during The Great Depression (as did all of the others), and they closed up after playing at the New York World's Fair in 1939. Important Added Info: Note that 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). This slide is the kind that has two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of the image, but we have not taken a photo of the slide, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: very good. The theater that used this slide wrote the days the movie was playing in the play dates section at the bottom of the glass, but the play dates were mostly erased (see our image).
