An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Argentinean Movie Poster (measures 14 1/4" x 28 1/4" [36 x 72 cm]) (Learn More) High Steppers, the 1926 Edwin Carewe silent England family relationship romantic love triangle melodrama (about a rich English Oxford student who is kicked out, and his family doesn't care because they are all decadent, and he tries to romance a married woman, but he meets an intelligent young lady who gets him a job as a reporter, and he changes his ways, and marries her) starring Lloyd Hughes, Mary Astor, Dolores Del Rio (third billed in her second movie appearance!), Rita Carewe, John T. Murray, Edwards Davis, Alec B. Francis, and Clarissa Selwynne. Note that Mary Astor plays the intelligent young lady, and Dolores Del Rio, in her second movie appearance, plays the rich married woman the young man thinks he is in love with. 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. 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 (more so along the foldlines), typical of Argentinean posters of this time period. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
