An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Herald (measures 4 1/2" x 7 1/4" [11 x 18 cm]; 2 pages) (Learn More)

Scarlet Youth, the 1928 William Hughes Curran sexploitation pseudo-documentary ("A super sensational sex drama! Bold! - Fearless! - Daring! Can your daughter take care of herself? See the picture that exposes and explains sex."; "A picture that dares to tell the truth"; "Exposes crime and vice in big cities"; "The most vivid sex picture ever filmed") starring Corliss Palmer, Ruth Robinson, Mary Foy, Freeman Wood, David Findlay, Connie La Mont, and Alphonse Martell. Note that this was yet another of the very popular "sex movies" made in the late 1920s that pretended to want to educate the population as to the evils of promiscuous sex and venereal disease, but actually, they were just a clever new way to pack in audiences! As was common with such movies at this time, the movie was shown with an "added attraction of special reels and lecture" (likely by a local doctor). Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist.
