Here is a pleasing array of cards of various styles from various Exhibit series devoted to film.  Silent film mega-stars include Tom Mix and Clara Bow.  There are four cards of Bob Steele, who was a western star in the Twenties but is best known to today's audiences as Trooper Duffy in the 1960s television comedy "F Troop".  Also included are cards from the ca. 1925 Rodeo set including one depicting Edith Stirling, one of the pioneering stuntwomen of the screen.  Rounding out the offering are two cards from two of 1929's issues that were intended to be cut up and used as game pieces.  The lot consists of:

Ca. 1925 PC Backed Titles In Boxes (3): Clara Bow and Robert Frazer in The Scarlet West; Rod La Roque in Braveheart; Tom Mix & Fred Thompson.

1920s Two Gun (2): Jack Holt Two Gun Man; The Sheriff Returns Two Gun Desmond's Six Shooter.

1920s Western (3): Richard Dix in The Last Man; Edward Connelly, Eleanor Boardman, Conrad Nagel and Arthur Edmund Carew in The Only Thing; Bob Steele in The Bandit's Son

1922 (1): Theodore Kosloff in Green Temptation

1930s Salutations (3): Bob Steele (2 different), Buck Jones

1940s Dead Shot (1): Bob Steele

1920s Rodeo (2): Edith Stirling The Movie Cowgirl; Cowboy Riding Horse Through Loop of Lasso

1929 Tenderfoot matching game (1):  Used as intended the cards would be cut apart and made into game pieces for a 'concentration' type memory game.  The set had 31 cards with matching pairs of images that were to be cut apart plus a rules/joker card that was the unpaired "Tenderfoot" the loser would be stuck with.  That card is offered here.  The card has a clipped corner from an Exhibit coupon and damage to the rules side of the card but is very rare in any condition.

1929 Lucky Horseshoe (1): Another to-be-cut-up issue, offered here is a card of Jack Padjan/Hoot Gibson.
