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 this is a hand-colored lobby card. In the days of silent movies prior to the invention of good quality full-color printing, studios would have stills and lobby cards printed in black and white and then amazingly would hire women to hand-color the lobby cards one at a time (labor was very cheap at the time)! So, each card is colored slightly differently, and the coloring is never a perfect match, and since it is water color paint, it sometimes "runs", because simple contact with water will remove the paint. Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: good to very good. The card is hand-colored and some of the red paint in the lower left has "run". There are pieces of tape on the back of each corner, but they were not put there for any restoration purpose. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
