Mix Has Made Hit in Fox Pictures -- August 15, 2018

Moving Picture World, 24-August-1918
100 years ago this month, Tom Mix starred in Fame and Fortune for Victory Pictures, a new brand of the Fox Film Corporation. I count 17 Tom Mixes in this ad.

The stars of the first Victory Pictures releases were Gladys Brockwell (Kultur), George Walsh (I'll Say So) and Tom Mix (Fame and Fortune).

This array of Fox stars includes Theda Bara, William Farnum, Gladys Brockwell (what is that hanging out of her mouth?) and Tom Mix.

"Tom Mix, cowboy, soldier, Texas Ranger, has never known what fear is, and when he went into motion pictures a few years ago he brought to his work the same daring and sensational riding that had been his life-habit."

We Jones, manager of San Diego's Superba Theater, created a unique display for "Ace High."
