Date Sold 5/11/2023Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Swedish Movie Poster (measures 28 1/2" x 39 1/2" [72 x 100 cm]) (Learn More) Foreign Devils, the 1927 W.S. Van Dyke silent China Boxer Rebellion military war melodrama (about an attache at the American Embassy in Peking during the Boxer Rebellion, and he not only saves a pretty Englishwoman, but he pretty much defeats the rebels single-handedly!) starring Tim McCoy, Claire Windsor, Cyril Chadwick, Frank Currier, and Emily Fitzroy. Note that director W.S. Van Dyke had gotten his start as an assistant on D.W. Griffith's "Intolerance" in 1916, and the following year, he was a director of many movies. He directed many westerns and other movies throughout the 1920s, and in 1928, he got his second big break when he helped Robert Flaherty direct "Shadows in the South Seas", and the following year, he was signed by MGM to make "Trader Horn", but it took two years to complete due to all the complications of location filming. The following year, he directed "Tarzan the Ape Man", and the huge success of that movie made him one of the top directors of the 1930s. 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 an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note also 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: good to very good. The poster has small tears around the edges but they only affect the blank borders (see our image). It has light fold wear and some slight discoloration in the left blank border. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and after a simple linenbacking the very rare poster will look great! Learn More about condition grades
