Some of you probably remember that Mascot
Pictures (which later became Republic
Pictures) used a tiger for its logo/trademark. The logo tiger was supposedly one of Clyde
Beatty’s cats, filmed during the production of Beatty’s serial THE
LOST JUNGLE. This
logo was used at the beginning of each of the 12 chapters of Gene Autry’s 1935
starring serial THE PHANTOM EMPIRE.
At the fade-in, the tiger is seen on top of a world
globe.

Mascot plus many other poverty row film companies became Republic because they could not pay there film processing and printing as Rebublic was Consolidated film Industries.
