Auction History Result 4a003 3 JUMPS AHEAD glass slide '23 Tom Mix assisted by The Master Horse Tony, early John Ford! Date Sold 1/10/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Glass Slide (measures 3 1/4" x 4" [8 x 10 cm]) (Learn More) Three Jumps Ahead, the 1923 John Ford (billed as "Jack Ford") silent cowboy western ("A tale of the Western Plains where the best man wins") starring Tom Mix Tony (billed as "Assisted by the Master Horse Tony"), Alma Bennett, Edward Peil Sr., Joseph W. Girard, and Virginia True Boardman. Note that this was the second film ever for Tony, Tom Mix's incredible horse. He had been introduced the year before in "Just Tony", and this was his second film, where he was billed as "The Master Horse Tony". In his next movie, "Stepping Fast", he would be billed as "Tony the Wonder Horse", and he received major billing on most of Tom Mix's films (and was a significant part of Mix's success, since he could do tricks that no other horse could do!). Also note that this is an early movie directed and written by John Ford, but sadly, the film is believed to be lost. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). This slide is the kind that has two panes of glass that are taped together with black tape around all four edges (front and back), typical of many older glass slides. We have provided a high quality scan of the image, but we have not taken a photo of the slide, because there would really be very little to see! Condition: good to very good. The black tape was missing from two borders and someone put masking tape on those. There is also tiny glass loss in a tiny corner of the back pane, and there is a mark in the top border (see our image). Otherwise, the slide is in pretty good condition.
