Mascot Pictures Corporation was an American film company of the 1920s and 1930s, best known for producing and distributing film serials and B-westerns. Mascot was formed in 1927 by film producer Nat Levine. In 1935, it merged with several other companies to form Republic Pictures.
Mascot's serial The King of the Kongo (1929) was the first serial to include sound, beating Universal Studios by several months.
The company's logo featured a roaring tiger resting on top of a model of the planet Earth.
