Note that the second double agent in this movie was played by Basil Rathbone, which surely soon led him to much bigger and better things! 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 first release 1926 movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single movie poster or lobby card from this movie (only a single 8x10 still) until we received this window card! Condition: very good. The card had pinholes, creases, and a few tears around the edges, with a few smudges and scuffs scattered in the image. Overall, the card was in very good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the card (meaning they backed the card onto a gel material) and they then performed excellent restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the card still exactly looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. You can see slight signs of the restoration, but the card displays really well! Learn More about condition grades
