Note that IMDB also lists Cecile Arnold, Charley Chase and Chester Conklin as "unverified" cast members (but some scholarly sources claim that that this is unlikely).

Important Added Info: Note that movie paper from this film is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single movie paper item from this movie until we were consigned these cards! Note also 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: good to very good. One has tears and/or other defects around the edges (see our images), some of which are repaired with tape from the back. Learn More about condition grades
