Auction History Result #A345 GUNNERS & GUNS pressbook '34 Date Sold 3/9/2004Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (measures 12" x 17 3/4"; 8 pages) (Learn More) Gunners & Guns, the 1935 Jerry Callahan & Robert J. Horner cowboy western (a re-edited version of the 1934 film "Racketeer Round-Up" with new footage featuring King the horse) starring King (billed as "'Black King' The horse with the human brain"), Edmund Cobb (billed as "Edwin Cobb"), Edna Aslin, Francis Walker (billed as "Frank Walker"), and Edward Biby. Note that this is a curious movie! The horse "Black King", which was apparently an incredibly talented horse (it had a "human brain") had made his screen debut in "Trail's End" in 1935, and was quickly rushed into two more movies that same year. Mitchell Leichner of Beaumont Pictures had the brainstorm to acquire the rights to the 1934 B-western movie "Racketeer Round-Up", and he filmed seven more minutes with Black King, and rushed the re-edited movie into theaters in 1935 under the new title "Gunners and Guns" (and we list it as separate from "Racketeer Round-Up" due to their substantial differences). We have not seen either movie, but someone who has says that this movie is way worse than anything Ed Wood did! Finally, note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: very good.
