Auction History Result #039 3 JUMPS AHEAD glass slide '23 Tom Mix Date Sold 11/6/2001Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Glass Slide (measures approximately 3" x 4") (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: 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). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Note that many of the older slides have only a black tape border around the glass, while most of the ones from sound films have a cardboard holder. It should be obvious from the scans below which type of border this slide has. Condition: fine. There is a tiny piece of the black border tape missing from the back of the slide.
