Auction History Result 4k101 FLAMING GUNS LC '32 incredible complete art of cowboy Tom Mix on pony Tony Jr., ultra rare! Date Sold 12/10/2013 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Flaming Guns, the 1932 Arthur Rosson cowboy western starring Tom Mix, Tony Jr. the Horse (billed as "and his new pony, Tony, Jr."), Ruth Hall, William Farnum, George Hackathorne, Duke R. Lee, Gilbert Holmes, Clarence Wilson, and Slim Whitaker. Note that it has been said that Tom Mix's horse Tony was the greatest horse ever in westerns (apparently he could untie knots with his teeth and he would run INTO burning buildings, something no other horse would do). He was in all of Mix's movies until Mix retired in 1929, Mix came out of retirement in 1932 and made five movies, all with "Tony Jr.", and then he retired again. If anyone knows more about why Tony stopped making movies in 1929 or about Tony Jr., and whether he was really Tony's son, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that on a very few movies, Universal in the early 1930s would include a "scene" card that had all artwork (something normally only reserved for the title card, and not always there either). I have only seen a very tiny number of these "all artwork" scene cards over the past 24 years. Also note that this lobby card has been paperbacked. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had pinholes around the edges, with a few scattered in the image, and paper loss near the middle of the bottom border. There were some stains in the title area and just a few stains in the rest of the card. Overall, the lobby card was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The card was well backed, but you can see slight signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
