Date Sold 1/10/2017Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Undated (probably mid to late 1920s) Re-Release Theatrical Folded Argentinean Movie Poster (measures 14 1/4" x 28 1/4" [36 x 72 cm]) (Learn More) Burlesque on Carmen, the 1916 Charlie Chaplin silent slapstick comedy (a wacky parody of Bizet's opera "Carmen") starring Charles Chaplin (as Darn Hosiery), Ben Turpin, Edna Purviance (in the title role as Carmen), Jack Henderson, Leo White, and John Rand NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a remarkable find of 143 Argentinean posters from 1926 to 1929 that were recently discovered! They all measure approximately 14 1/4" x 28 1/4", which was one of the two main sizes created for Argentinean movie posters at that time (the other was a poster that measured 29" x 43"). It is likely that prior to this amazing find, there were only a small number of these posters known to exist in the entire world, and after these 143 are auctioned, it is unlikely that there will be many more discovered, even over the coming decades! This is a rare opportunity to purchase an Argentinean poster from the late 1920s, a time when virtually no movie posters from any country are known to exist! Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. There are a few minor patches of slight discoloration scattered in various areas, typical of Argentinean posters of this time period (mostly noticeable either on back or in the blank borders on front of the poster.) It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well. Learn More about condition grades
