RARE FIND!! ORIGINAL 8 x 10 black & white PHOTOGRAPHIC NEGATIVE x 2 - (could be) WILLIAM "Stage" BOYD (1930's silents COWBOY) - by KING STUDIOS, Hollywood California - c1930's - original envelope included!!

This original black & white photographic negative x 2 appears to be a Publicity Head Shot/ partial body shot of WILLIAM "Stage" BOYD of stage & the old silent cowboy movies c1930's. Not to be confused with William Boyd of Hopalong Cassidy fame, though, originally the consensus was these were shots of the 1950's Boyd of Hopalong Cassidy. These men do look very similar! If anyone has further info, please email, since there were many actors of this era making cowboy movies.
Both negatives are the 8x10 size! The negatives are by KING STUDIOS, North Vine Street Hollywood California. The original envelope is decorated with a blue gun toting woman and all the studio address info. The negatives have the King Studios logo in the bottom corner. I couldn't locate a current reference to this photo studio. The last two photos posted (above) were done with REVERSE Photoshop to better see what the end print would be like and are for reference purposes only! Great RARE historical original negatives & envelope!
