Date Sold 9/27/2015Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Lobby Card (Learn More) L'Apache, the 1919 Joseph DeGrasse silent Paris France mistaken identity romantic love triangle crime murder mystery melodrama (a complicated story of an American woman in Paris who gets mixed up with the French Apache underworld, and she ends up married against her will to the leader of it; later, an American visits with his wife, who looks the same as the wife of the underworld leader, and she is forced to impersonate the woman, with tragic consequences) starring Dorothy Dalton (in a dual role), Robert Elliott, Macey Harlam, Austin Webber, and George Furry. Note that it was a pretty common plot device in silent movies to not only have people meet their exact double, but also to then go on to impersonate them. I wonder if this happens much in real life! Also note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that, in the early days of movie making, when lobby cards were first made (around 1915), studios would issue sets of the cards in two sizes; the regular 11" x 14" size, and a smaller 8" x 10" size. The cards were identical in every way except for the different size. This practice continued through the early 1920s, at which point the studios abandoned the smaller lobby cards, likely because theaters either ordered 11" x 14" lobby cards or 8" x 10" stills, and did not order enough of the 8" x 10" lobby cards to justify them continuing to make them. Condition: very good to fine. The still is in very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
