Hullo all….
Tonight we’re at Kyle and Geraldine’s, to admire the great poster Stel did
on the Sept 27th 2018 “CLEO and COMPANY”
It’s on Sherpa:

I love the blue and purplie shadows, and the soft sweet eyes.
And yes, a hail of biscuits is so much better than a hail of …um…. well… hail…..
and especially better than a hail of bullets….
as in so many westerns, and even, I believe, in the human version of this one.
Doggy actors should NOT be allowed to play with bullets…. not even blanks….
though we all know one dog who breaks that (and almost every other) rule.
Anyhow, I remember finding a mystery, when this ran before… and it deepened when I searched later.
I found a human poster…. from 1925… maybe….
But not only is this fellow no basset…
I think he’s also no Tom Mix!

When I search for it, I also find this:

Which turns out to be from 1933, and a different human actor!
OK, … in 1933, they “borrowed” Tom Mix’s 1925 poster, for a new Tim McCoy western…..
But later I realised… that’s NOT the Tom Mix I remember on collectibles.
So I found him:

And here’s … um.. the “real McCoy” ….(Tim):

So how did they copy a poster, in 1925 from a movie that wouldn’t be made for another 8 years???
Meanwhile, Geraldine says don’t be afraid of Stubby….
but I think I’m leaving my shoes in my car…. and my purse at home.
