Flash the dog, eating dinner with Tony the Wonder Horse and Western film actor Tom Mix, Chicago, April 26, 1929

(Tony, who retired at 22 in 1932, would outlive Tom by two years, dying in 1942, two years to the date of Tom’s death. In 1927, when Mix placed his handprints in the cement outside Grauman’s Chinese Theater, Tony’s hoofprints were placed alongside them.)
