I’ll eventuall post a picture of the lobby card and picture for all to see. He does appear with Tex Ritter on a movie poster of ‘Arizona Frontier’. Google the movie or Jim Thorpe and the movie and you can see it. Mike

Is that him with the cauldron? I know there are a few still that picture him. Lobby cards from that film don't show up very often.

Actually in doing some research, Thorpe is prominent on the one sheet and the title card for the film as well. I was not aware. One sheet is a great image of Thorpe.

Welcome aboard, Mike. I collect some Lobby Cards too.....Love to see it when you get a chance. Happy Collecting and good luck in the hunt!!

Leon..thanks for the welcome! The lobby cards and posters with him on them are next to impossible to locate. I think I found the lobby card from somebody in Australia if I remember the purchase correctly. Sure would love to get a movie poster of Arizona Frontier with he and Tex Ritter on it. Several movie items from that movie has him on it....just can’t locate any! Mike

I already do! I’ve already seen some Thorpe stuff I didn’t know existed!
