TOM MIX
Legendary star Tom Mix signs a slip of paper in black ink.
Signature: "Tom Mix", 3½x1¼ piece of paper. A skilled horseman from
childhood, Mix was hired to round up cattle for the film Ranch Life in the
Great Southwest (1910), and was assigned a supporting role in the film.
The film's producers, Selig Polyscope, retained him as an actor, and from
1911-1917 he appeared in over 100 one- and two-reelers, often producing and/or
directing his films. Selig went out of business in 1917 and Mix was signed by
Fox, which starred him in the westerns that established him as the premier
cowboy star. His success helped Fox become a major studio. In the late 20s
and early 30s, he quit films for three years to tour with the Ringling Brothers
Circus with his famous horse, Tony. From 1932-1935 he starred in several talkie
westerns, then retired from the screen. He was 60 when he was killed in a car
crash. Irregular edges. Mounting remnants on verso (light show through). Fine
condition.
