Auction History Result ESCAPE OF JIM DOLAN 1sheet  Appears in Cowboy Movie PostersBOOK SOLD OUT The image at right appears in the book we published as shown above. While we once owned this item, we did not auction it through eMoviePoster.com (which is why no price or date is listed) nor do we have it available for purchase. The Escape of Jim Dolan, the 1913 William Duncan silent romantic love triangle cowboy western short ("In two reels"; "'The brand convicts you'"; about a cowboy who is framed and sentenced to ten years in jail, but his girlfriend smuggles him a saw, and he escapes, and is exonerated) starring Tom Mix (in the title role as Jim Dolan), Lester Cuneo, Nip Van, Victor Frith, and Myrtle Stedman. Note that Lester Cuneo had been a major comedy star at the Selig Studio in 1912, but after just a few movies, he chose to re-invent himself as a cowboy star, and had success there as well, also playing dramatic roles at the same time. He served in World War I (WWI), and returned to Hollywood and again began making westerns, playing a character billed as "The Smiling Daredevil". But by the early 1920s, his westerns were less and less successful, and after a series of personal and professional failures, Cuneo could not get any parts at all, and he committed suicide in 1925.
