"He is remembered as a foremost western star of the silent era who 'imbued all of his characters with honor and integrity.' During the late 1910s and early 1920s, he was one of the most consistently popular movie stars, frequently ranking high among male actors in popularity contests held by movie fan magazines," writes one biographer. He was William S. Hart, an American silent film actor, screenwriter, director and producer. From 1907 to 1925, Hart appeared in nearly 75 silent western films. His first was a two-reeler, His Hour of Manhood (1914). His last was Tumbleweeds (1925) for United Artists. 25 William S. Hart Movie Posters pays tribute to this early film cowboy by presenting a collection of vintage movie posters and, in some cases, lobby cards for more than two dozen of his films. They include The Man from Nowhere (1915), Disciple (1915), Hell's Hinges (1916), The Aryan (1916), The Primal Lure (1916), The Dawn Maker (1916), The Devil's Double (1916), The Gunfighter (1917), The Desert Man (1917), Wolf Lowry (1917), The Cold Deck (1917), Wolves of the Rail (1918), Selfish Yates (1918), Riddle Gawne (1918), The Border Wireless (1918), Branding Broadway (1918), Breed of Men (1919), The Testing Block (1920), O'Malley of the Mounted (1921), The Whistle (1921), Three Word Brand (1921), White Oak (1921), Travelin' On (1922), Wild Bill Hickok (1923), and Tumbleweeds (1925). Printed in color on white paper, 25 William S. Hart Movie Posters is a colorful collection worth having.

Hollywood Vault is the story of how the business of film libraries emerged and evolved, spanning the silent era to the sale of feature libraries to television. Eric Hoyt argues that film libraries became valuable not because of the introduction of new technologies but because of the emergence and growth of new markets, and suggests that studying the history of film libraries leads to insights about their role in the contemporary digital marketplace. The history begins in the mid-1910s, when the star system and other developments enabled a market for old films that featured current stars. After the transition to films with sound, the reissue market declined but the studios used their libraries for the production of remakes and other derivatives. The turning point in the history of studio libraries occurred during the mid to late 1940s, when changes in American culture and an industry-wide recession convinced the studios to employ their libraries as profit centers through the use of theatrical reissues. In the 1950s, intermediary distributors used the growing market of television to harness libraries aggressively as foundations for cross-media expansion, a trend that continues today. By the late 1960s, the television marketplace and the exploitation of film libraries became so lucrative that they prompted conglomerates to acquire the studios. The first book to discuss film libraries as an important and often underestimated part of Hollywood history, Hollywood Vault presents a fascinating trajectory that incorporates cultural, legal, and industrial history.

His popularity eclipsed all other great cowboy stars (Hoot Gibson and even the legendary William S. Hart) of the silent era and he earned--and spent--millions. He appeared in 291 films, all but nine of which were silent movies. He was Hollywood's first Western megastar and helped define the genre as it emerged in the early days of the cinema.* He was Tom Mix. 25 Tom Mix Movie Posters presents a collection of movie posters, in full color, from more than two dozen of Mix's films. Films include Twisted Trails (1916), The Heart of Texas Ryan (1917), The Feud (1919), The Cyclone (1920), A Ridin' Romeo (1921), Sky High (1922), The Fighting Streak (1922), For Big Stakes (1922), Romance Land (1923), The Best Bad Man (1925), The Lucky Horseshoe (1925), For My Pal (1926), No Man's Gold (1926), The Great K&A Train Robbery (1926), The Circus Ace (1927), The Arizona Wildcat (1927), Horseman of the Plains (1928), Hello Cheyenne! (1928), Painted Post (1928), King Cowboy (1928), The Big Diamond Robbery (1929), Destry Rides Again (1932), The Texas Bad Man (1932), The Miracle Rider (1932) and Flaming Guns (1935). 25 Tom Mix Movie Posters is a colorful tribute to the king of the cowboys. *IMDb and Wikipedia

"Even in the earliest "Wild West" subjects, the lens of settler colonialism reveals major tropes that will become characteristic of westerns in their depiction of "our country"'s expansion across the North American continent. Single and split-reel fiction films initially may not have captured the vistas of plains and mountains depicted in the large historical paintings and murals described in the Introduction. After all, up to 1904, those companies producing motion pictures for sale or rental chiefly were located in or around New York (Edison, AM&B), Philadelphia (Lubin), and Chicago (Selig Polyscope). Moreover, their cameras, especially the bulky Biograph camera (using 68mm filmstock until 1903), kept them from venturing beyond their spartan studios, except for shooting travel films. The stories and characters that had long circulated in popular dime novels, however, proved a welcome source of inspiration. One figure was particularly notable. Kit Carson (1809-1868) was known as a trail-blazing hunter, trapper, scout, and Indian fighter whose frontier adventures led him frequently across the plains and into the western mountains in the mid-19th century. He had guided John Charles Frémont on no fewer than three expeditions (1842, 1843, 1845) through the Rocky Mountains into California on the Oregon and Santa Fe trails. Together they mounted an uprising against Mexico and prepared the way for California to become a state. Later the frontiersman led several campaigns against the Apaches, Navajos, and Kiowas in what became New Mexico. Carson's legendary stature as an American pioneer came largely from dime novels such as Kit Carson, the Prince of the Gold Hunters (1849) and The Prairie Flower, or the Adventures of the Far West (1849) as well as his "memoir," The Life and Adventures of Kit Carson, the Nestor of the Rocky Mountains (1858). Scores of novels featuring his fictional exploits were published and republished through the turn of the century. Even in its book cover design, The Fighting Trapper, Kit Carson to the Rescue (1874), for instance, graphically depicts his skill at hand-to-hand combat. Perhaps it is no wonder that AM&B made him the hero of its early story films, Kit Carson and The Pioneers (both 1903), shot with a more standardized camera (using 35mm filmstock) in the Adirondack Mountains, "amid scenery of the wildest natural beauty and enacted with the greatest fidelity to the original.""--

The Sagebrush Trail is a history of Western movies but also a history of twentieth-century America. Richard Aquila’s fast-paced narrative covers both the silent and sound eras, and includes classic westerns such as Stagecoach, A Fistful of Dollars, and Unforgiven, as well as B-Westerns that starred film cowboys like Tom Mix, Gene Autry, and Hopalong Cassidy. The book is divided into three parts. Part 1 traces the birth and growth of Westerns from 1900 through the end of World War II. Part 2 focuses on a transitional period in Western movie history during the two decades following World War II. Finally, part 3 shows how Western movies reflected the rapid political, social, and cultural changes that transformed America in the 1960s and the last decades of the twentieth century. The Sagebrush Trail explains how Westerns evolved throughout the twentieth century in response to changing times, and it provides new evidence and fresh interpretations about both Westerns and American history. These films offer perspectives on the past that historians might otherwise miss. They reveal how Americans reacted to political and social movements, war, and cultural change. The result is the definitive story of Western movies, which contributes to our understanding of not just movie history but also the mythic West and American history. Because of its subject matter and unique approach that blends movies and history, The Sagebrush Trail should appeal to anyone interested in Western movies, pop culture, the American West, and recent American history and culture. The mythic West beckons but eludes. Yet glimpses of its utopian potential can always be found, even if just for a few hours in the realm of Western movies. There on the silver screen, the mythic West continues to ride tall in the saddle along a “sagebrush trail” that reveals valuable clues about American life and thought.
