Sir Lumberjack is a 1926 American silent drama film directed by Harry Garson and starring Maurice 'Lefty' Flynn, Kathleen Myers, and Tom Kennedy. [1]
As described in a film magazine review, [2] Bill Barlow, a ne’er-do-well decides reform himself by taking work in his father’s lumber camp. Some tramps take his clothes and he is forced to don theirs. He arrives at the camp and is refused recognition as the boss’ son, but is given work helping the cook. He overhears a plot to cut across property belonging to another landholder. He prevents this and obtains the required amount of money to pay off the mortgage for John Calhoun and his daughter Bess, who Bill has decided is to be his future wife, and sells the land to his father.
Film Booking Offices of America (FBO), registered as FBO Pictures Corp., was an American film studio of the silent era, a midsize producer and distributor of mostly low-budget films. The business began in 1918 as Robertson-Cole, an Anglo-American import-export company. Robertson-Cole began distributing films in the United States that December and opened a Los Angeles production facility in 1920. Late that year, R-C entered into a working relationship with East Coast financier Joseph P. Kennedy. A business reorganization in 1922 led to the company's assumption of the new FBO name. Two years later, the studio contracted with Western leading man Fred Thomson, who within a couple years was one of Hollywood's most popular stars. Thomson was just one of several silent screen cowboys with whom FBO became identified.
