Auction History Result f510 SADDLE ACES insert movie poster '35 cowboy Rex Bell, Ruth Mix Date Sold 8/14/2007Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36") (Learn More) Saddle Aces, the 1935 Harry L. Fraser (billed as "Harry Fraser") cowboy western (from the story 'Deuces Wild' by Jay J. Kaley) starring Rex Bell, Ruth Mix (daughter of Tom Mix, who appeared in around a dozen movies, starting as a teenager), Buzz Barton, Stanley Blystone, Earl Dwire, and John Elliott. Note that Buzz Barton was born William Lamoreaux, but at the age of 12, he played a small role in a B-western, billed as "Billy Lamar". Over the next two years, he appeared in a total of nine B-westerns, being billed under various names. Apparently, he was quite a horseman, and in 1927, he starred in "The Boy Rider" as a youthful western hero, and he was billed as "Buzz Barton". This proved to be a very popular movie, and over the next two years, he appeared in around a dozen similar movies, as the "World's Greatest Juvenile Western Star", always playing David "Red" Hepner (because of Barton's red hair). Over the next few years, he continued making B-westerns, playing various characters, but becoming an adult hurt his career, and he was reduced to playing uncredited parts in scores of B-westerns in the late 1930s. He left the movies in 1942, when he enlisted in the Navy (even though he only grew to 5'2" as an adult). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most insert posters were folded twice horizontally right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most inserts, especially from before 1970! Condition: good. There is paper loss in all four corners, extending into the edges of the image in the bottom corners. There was a 3" tear in the lower right of the poster that was repaired with tape from the back and a 6" tear in the lower left (just below the beginning of the word "SADDLE" in the title). The entire poster is somewhat fragile. Learn More about condition grades
