id: Unidentified Film No. 035
director: Unknown
year: 1924?
country: USA?

A private collector was in possession of this fragment from a silent film western for many years before passing the material onto me in April 2008.
The fragment is very short (just the three shots depicted in the accompanying images) and came crudely joined to another fragment from a different silent western with sellotape, which had turned rather nasty and sticky.
(Images corresponding to the other unidentified fragment can be viewed under 'Unidentified Film No. 033').
All three shots were coloured by combination of blue tone and orange tint (which came out yellow in the accompanying photographs).
The edgecode visible in all three shots corresponds to the year 1924 but, as this is only the manufacture date of the film stock, the film's original production and/or release date may differ.
Although the fragment is no longer in my possession (it's last whereabouts was a lab in London but it may have since moved on), I am still curious to know the exact identity of the film.
Unfortunately, there were no close-ups or inter-titles amongst these three surviving shots, making it very difficult to identify a precise title.
From the locations visible, Kevin Brownlow reckons the film was shot somewhere in the East Coast or the Mid-West of America.
Can anyone provide any more information?

Format: 35mm, 1.33:1
Picture/Sound: coloured, silent
Notes: 'Eastman Kodak [Triangle] [Square]' edgecode

I believe is a George Melies film from the 1890´s it looks like it was a kinetograph picture,but I can´t tell it looks like the civil war.
