Note that Paramount gave this movie a really major release, and virtually every poster on the movie has completely different artwork from all the other posters! Note that the advertising for this movie states that "3,000 actors spend 3 months on a location 80 miles from the railroad. 1,000 Indians were used and the livestock included 600 oxen, 1,000 horses, and 500 mules"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that German programs from the early 1920s are INCREDIBLY scarce, especially from major movies. This is almost certainly because of the great paper shortages in Germany during World War II, during which all earlier paper was recycled, which means virtually no pre-World War II German paper survives. Also note that we have pictured the front cover, and two interior 2-page spreads from this program. Condition: very good to fine. The program is printed on a newsprint like paper and it is fragile around the edges with a few small tears, but otherwise, it is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
