Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (Learn More) The Wild Girl, the 1925 Billy Bletcher (billed as "William Bletcher") silent love triangle murder melodrama (about a girl who grew up in the woods, and a cowboy who gets involved with her) starring Louise Lorraine, Rex the Dog (billed as "Rex the Wonder Dog"), Black Beauty (billed as "The Marvelous Horse"), Art Acord, and Andrew Waldron. Note that Rex the Dog first appeared in 1923, and then two years later, he appeared again, and since in the second movie he made in 1925 he was billed as "Rex II", we suspect that was a different dog from the 1923 Rex, but we can't say for sure. In any event, Rex was a Border Collie, and apparently he was really wonderful, because he was variously billed as "Rex the Wonder Dog", "Rex the Marvelous Dog", and "Rex the Movie Collie". He ended his career in 1929, hopefully going into a long retirement! If anyone knows more about Rex the Dog, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

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: good to very good. There are rust stains at all of the staples in the cardboard holder. There is an odd unevenness in the top edge of the glass (extending into the "WI" of "WILD") that vanishes when the slide is held in front of a light source. There a Learn More about condition grades
