MASCOT PICTURES made serials under its own name from 1926 to 1935. After that, MASCOT and four other lesser "Poverty Row" studios were combined under the REPUBLIC PICTURES banner.
THE STORY of REX AND RINTY (1935):
Truly a kid's movie if ever there was one. Rex is horse-napped from his island home and brought to America. After an escape, Rex is befriended in the wild by Rinty, who helps him avoid recapture.

REX AND RINTY trivia:
Rin Tin Tin Jr. carried on the family tradition begun by his sire and namesake thirteen years earlier. The original Rinty died at age 16 the year this serial was released.
Rex was also a "Jr." of sorts. The original Rex the Wonder Horse took part in 15 projects between 1924 and '33. This Rex had a shorter career: four movies in as many years.
Ralph Byrd (in a minor role here) soon went on to fame as DICK TRACY. He played the comic strip character in serials and on early television.
Smiley Burnette was singing cowboy Gene Autry's sidekick in over 80 westerns. He also wrote 300-plus western-flavored songs, and sang in some films.
Mischa Auer was typecase in the 1930s and 40s as a "Mad Russian."
Counting serials, Kane Richmond played a supporting role in exactly 100 films.
.
The original Rin Tin Tin may be seen in another serial called THE LONE DEFENDER, while the first Rex appears in THE VANISHING LEGION, yet another MASCOT PICTURES cliffhanger.
