Reeves Eason (billed as "Breezy Eason") equine horse German Shepherd canine dog cowboy western adventure serial ("A Mascot super-serial in 12 thrill-inspiring chapters"; "together for the first time"; written by Ford Beebe) starring Rex ("King of the Wild Horses"), Rin Tin Tin Jr. ("The Dog Hero of Young America"; Rex and Rin Tin Tin Jr. are billed as "Together for the first time"), Bob Custer, Ben Turpin, Lucille Browne, and Ernie Adams. Note that legendary cross-eyed silent comedian Ben Turpin made one of his few sound appearances in this western, and he apparently livened it up quite a bit! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. This poster was linenbacked, but it was either NOT linenbacked by a very talented restorer, OR it was linenbacked many years ago, and has received rough handling over the years, OR it had fairly major defects that were not restorated at all. If it was restored, you can clearly see signs of the restoration even from a distance. This is a poster that would greatly benefit from additional professional restoration. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster was backed on to a thin linen with no excess linen around the edges. The poster had two vertical folds instead of one and there were many small tears, small areas of paper loss, and smudges along all the foldlines and around the edges of the poster. The person who backed the poster made the most minimal attempt at touching up the defects. The poster would greatly benefit from additional restoration or re-backing.
