Date Sold 12/9/2010 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) South of the Rio Grande, the 1932 Lambert Hillyer south-of-the-border Mexican cowboy western ("Fighting for love and life!"; about a man who seeks to avenge his brother's suicide after a manipulative woman and her accomplice swindle his family!) starring Buck Jones (billed as "Fearless fighting Buck Jones"), Mona Maris, Doris Hill, Philo McCullough, and George J. Lewis. 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 that many people consider the one-sheet from this movie (with a striking close up image of Buck Jones with a sombrero against a purple background) to be one of the finest cowboy movie posters ever! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good. The card had tiny staple holes in the bottom center of the image. There was a pair of staple holes in the top left of the inset image, and the staple was roughly removed, causing a 1" tear in that background area. Some restorer put tape on the back of that tear and also on the back of a small tear in the center of the bottom border and then performed restoration to the front of the card (in the yellow background behind the title and in the background areas around Jones' image at top right). The restoration was well done and the card displays well, but you can see slight signs of the restoration. Learn More about condition grades
