An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Movie Window Card (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More)

Cecil B. DeMille's The Ten Commandments, the classic 1923 Cecil B. DeMille silent religious Biblical epic ("The mightiest dramatic spectacle of all the ages"; "Story by Jeanie MacPherson") starring Theodore Roberts (as Moses), Rod La Rocque, Leatrice Joy, Nita Naldi, Charles De Roche (as Rameses), Estelle Taylor, Julia Faye, Terrence Moore, and Richard Dix. Note that in this, Cecil B. DeMille's first version of this movie, the movie is essentially split into two parts, one that is "modern" (set in 1923), and the other with the Biblical portion. Of course, DeMille remade the movie in 1959 with Charlton Heston in the lead role, and it was solely the Biblical portion that he used when he re-made the movie.

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this window card, and that was 16 years ago, when it sold for $1,225! Also note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded.

Condition: good to very good. The card has many stains around the edges, but fortunately, very few of them affect the image. There is a scuff mark in the upper right of the image in the art to the right of the "N" of "TEN". There is a partial horizontal crease across the upper part of the image, above DeMille's credit. There are some creases and tears in the top of the card and in the bottom corners, as well as one in the upper left border, and someone put conservation tape on the back of those areas.
