An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) The Man Who Played Square, the 1924 Alfred Santell (billed as "Al Santell") silent romantic gold mining cowboy western ("Story by William Wallace Cook"; about co-owners of a goldmine who have a dispute, and in a fight both mortally wound the other; one of them survives long enough to sign over half his interest to his best friend, and the other half to his partner's daughter, and after many adventures, the friend ends up marrying the daughter, so they get the entire gold mine!) starring Buck Jones, Ben Hendricks Jr., David Kirby, Hank Mann, Howard Foster, and Wanda Hawley. 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: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good to very good. The card was lightly folded horizontally at one time, and there are rough creases across the center (but they are truly not very noticeable or distracting). It looks like an amateur restorer has slightly touched up the creases in the background areas at left and right, but otherwise, the card has not been restored, and has no tape on front or back.
