Originally published on August 25, 2020, one year ago, a blog entry on the following arcade/exhibit card bore no silent film title text at the lower left corner but its appearance suggested it was from one of Tom Tyler's silent films from around 1928. One can only imagine just how exciting it was to watch Tom execute this scene on silent film, slightly out of regular onscreen cowboy costume. Then again Tom would look in perfect shape, for 1928 was the year he won the Amateur Athletic Union heavyweight weightlifting championship.
Many thanks to The Times Dispatch (Richmond, VA) July 8, 1928 for providing the identifying source of this Tom Tyler silent film arcade/exhibit card.
