The Phantom of the Range 1928

Believe it or not, there is a video of this Tom Tyler silent film over at Youtube. A few things to keep in mind when you watch this silent film: all of the intertitles are in Castilian Spanish, and there is no music or other audio to accompany it. This copy seems to be in its completeness. The picture quality is not the best, but this gives a glimpse of Tom Tyler's early silent films made for FBO besides the existing "Texas Tornado" on DVD. James Dugan directed. There are many humorous moments throughout the film, many which happen to Tom. Enjoy!
