Auction History Result 5k762 EMPTY SADDLES 4 LCs '36 images of cowboy Buck Jones, Gertrude Astor! Date Sold 3/10/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 4 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Empty Saddles, the 1936 Lesley Selander cowboy western ("From a Novel by Cherry Wilson") starring Buck Jones, Louise Brooks (the legendary beauty in one of her final roles), Harvey Clark, Gertrude Astor, Chas Middleton, Frank Campeau, Niles Welch, Lloyd Ingraham, Ben Corbett, and Robert Adair. Note that pre-talkie star Louise Brooks turned her back on Hollywood in 1929, and went to Europe and made some memorable films. In the early 1930s she attempted to return to Hollywood (minus her trademark flapper hairdo), but met with little success. She is prominently billed in this movie, but is not pictured on the posters. Also note that Buck Jones' white horse was named Silver (just like The Lone Ranger's later on!), and Silver made 73 movies with Buck Jones from 1922 until Jones' death in 1942 in the tragic Cocoanut Grove fire. But oddly, Silver was almost never billed on the posters for Buck Jones' movies as so many other famous horses (most especially Tom Mix's Tony) were! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good to very good. Some have creases and tears of varying lengths (approximately 1/2" or less) around the edges and pinholes. A few of the tears or other defects as described above are repaired with tape from the back. Learn More about condition grades
