Texas Guinan * Texas Guinan: Texas Guinan: The She Wolf

Between 1917 — 1922, TEXAS GUINAN had a career in silent flickers, where she rode a horse, shot a gun, and did her own stunts in numerous two-reelers. In 1919, her film "The She Wolf" was released.
• • "At the Grand" • •
• • Texas Guinan, who has been called the female Bill Hart, comes to the Grand today in a regulation Western melodrama called "The She Wolf." Miss Guinan is the only delineator of the good—bad woman in pictures, and this fact would make her conspicuous regardless of her performance.
• • It happens, however, that she contributes a splendid bit of acting — — a bit of acting which will remind you of Bill Hart. Miss Guinan claims that she can do anything that the Western screen star Bill Hart can do. And this picture goes a long ways toward proving that there is merit to her claim. This picture will be shown tomorrow also.
