Auction History Result 3j596 MYSTERIOUS PILOT Belgian 1950s wild fiery art of crashing airplane, serial! Date Sold 5/25/2010 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original (probably 1950s from the first Belgian release) Vintage Theatrical Folded Belgian Movie Poster (measures 14" x 21" [36 x 53 cm]) (Learn More) The Mysterious Pilot, the 1937 Spencer Gordon Bennet action adventure airplane aviation serial ("Sensational battles far above the Earth!"; "Thrill-filled drama... with the fastest man alive!"; purportedly written by L. Ron Hubbard, creator of Scientology) starring Frank Hawks (billed as "Capt. Frank Hawks"), Dorothy Sebastian, Rex Lease, Guy Bates Post, Kenneth Harlan, Clara Kimball Young, Esther Ralston, and Yakima Canutt. Note that star Frank Hawks had been an ace pilot in World War I, and after the war, he became a professional pilot, setting several speed records. In 1932, he appeared in two films, one of them a short, and then he starred in this movie five years later, and those were his only three film roles. Sadly, the following year, he passed away, dying in a plane crash at age 41 (and he was not in an experimental plane or doing stunts). Also note that, apparently, the person who made this serial had a love of silent movies, because some top stars from the silent days showed up in supporting roles in this serial!
